🎉 I hadn't kept up with what Django's Steering Council had been up to outside of random board updates, and I'm happy to share how impressed I am with how transparent they are.
They are meeting several times a month and sharing their minutes as they go. https://github.com/django/steering-council
They are even sharing on the Django Forum to bring more visibility to what they are doing https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/django-steering-council-meetings-2025/38306
These are very welcoming changes. 👏👏

Really enjoyed the https://djangochat.com/episodes/django-survey-2025-jeff-triplett podcast that was released today about the latest Django survey.
💯 to all of the talk about the #Django ecosystem page at https://www.djangoproject.com/community/ecosystem/! Really glad this got over the hurdles to make this live. 😍

The State of Django 2025
#Python #Pycharm #Webdevelopment #Django #Survey

I wanted to add a progress SVG to my new project's #Django template via https://github.com/adamghill/dj-spinners.
1. `uv add dj-angles dj-spinners`
2. Add mapper to `dj-angles` settings in my project (https://dj-angles.adamghill.com/en/latest/mappers.html#string-value)
3. Add `"dj_spinners.templatetags.dj_spinners”,` to `TEMPLATES[0].OPTIONS.builtins`
4. Instead of `{% spinner "3-dots-bounce" %} ` use `<dj-spinner name="3-dots-bounce" />`
Voilà!
