🎉 Happy 20th Birthday Django 🎉
I first heard about Django 18 years ago when I made a phone call to a prospective client and now I have a business built around finding companies the best Django talent.
Along the way I have seen first hand just how much this amazing framework shapes lives and careers.
I've shared some of my thoughts and experiences with Django in a blog post: https://foxleytalent.com/blog/django-turns-20/

If you use #Django REST Framework, have a look at my recent https://github.com/loopwerk/drf-action-serializers package. I’m really proud of it, and I love it quite a lot.

OK, #django friends...
I thought the practice of loading fixtures as data migrations was quite commonplace, but I can't seem to find any credible guide / documentation on doing it easily, except for an app by Alex Hays for Django 1.7.
Any pointers?
Never thought I'd be writing official docs for a major open source project begging LLMs to stop fabricating surreal vulnerabilities.
Is this the future??? 😱
Hasta la vista, baby.

Happy birthday @django!
Back at my first university, I had to make a choice between #Django and Rails, and I never regretted my decision to have chosen the former! This decision follows me to this day, now that I work with Django professionally and very much enjoy doing so :)
A good reason for me (and you!) to donate to DSF to keep the framework afloat 💚
🎉 @django turns 20 this year!
If you’ve been deep in the codebase or part of the community:
👀 What should we keep doing?
⚠️ What should we stop?
💭 What’s on your wishlist?
Reply or DM—curious what folks think!
Final preparations for #EuroPython! This is the last batch of 800 stickers for the conference, with lots of special ones for Django’s 20th birthday! Will be there for the whole conference, with a Django booth (thank you @europython), and sprints on the weekend! There may be a birthday cake too 🎂🤫
Wrapping a #Django project in an electron app and shipping it to windows / macOS running a full data science stack (>1gb .venv) using a bundled relocatable Python interpreter with django-tasks for long running simulations and htmx to be able to show interactive progress. Still baffled that this works at all.

Happy 20th birthday Django! 💝🎂🎉 #DjangoBirthday @django #Python #Django
Like so many others, my life has been so much richer for having found #Django early on.
I started using it because I wanted to build tools for teachers and students, without having to spend all my time focusing on technical aspects of 2000s-era web app infrastructure. Django let me focus on the tools I was building, not the infrastructure itself.
Ten years later I finally went to a DjangoCon, and started meeting lifelong friends. Thank you to everyone that's helped it reach 20 years!
I started using #Django in 2007, before the version 1.0.
It was #Python 2.7.
I think SQLite was not yet part of the standard library.
My first real Django project started four years later, in 2011.
I contributed to it for about six years.
It’s still in use at @radiohelsinki
Five years ago I started contributing to a project that has evolved from it.
I have attended a couple of Django conferences in Europe and even had the opportunity to give a remote presentation at DjangoCon Europe and US two years ago.
I have always loved the people and the community around this wonderful project.
Another cool #Django package that was just announced: django-smart-ratelimit

📣 Happy Birthday to Django!
