Cool lightning talk by Samuel Searles-Bryant
They argue you should eagerly adopt new linting rules even if your existing code violates them.
The idea is that you stop your code from getting worse and fix the issues in your existing code if and when time permits.
They even created a python tool that automatically adds the appropriate ignore comments to your code after activating new rules.
Thank you to the amazing team @djangoconeurope for making this event happen again.
This was my 4th DjangoCon in the 6th year of working with Django and I've once again met many great people and heard lots of interesting talks.

🚨 NEW EPISODE ALERT 🚨
We just released a new episode about building #Django #REST APIs! We give our hot takes about DRF, Django Ninja, and when to use one versus the other (spoiler alert: it depends!).
Episode 5: Chocolately Django REST APIs 🍫
We also talk about movies and give coffee updates. @sjbitcode also discovers who Pee Wee Herman is and @adamghill STILL hasn’t watched all of Severance!!! 🤦
And as always we would appreciate a 5 star review! ✨

We'll have a full recap blog post out soon, but we wanted to take a moment to celebrate a fantastic #PyConUS! We all had a great time. Thank you so much #PyConUS2025 organizers! And a special thank you to our friends @django, who shared their booth space and collaborated on meetups with us. We were a powerful team of advocates for Python web dev! 🙌
1 year later and there's a proper domain and site up for #Django Commons
I'm not a developer, I just know enough python code to get into trouble.
I'm trying to find the simplest way to run a python script which queries an api and displays the results on a Wordpress website.
I'm guessing I need to make a simple standalone website and embed that in a wordpress page... should I be looking into making a #django app?
Finally! Got my write up of my talk @djangoconeurope done! 😅

Why, in 2025, do we still need a 3rd party app to write a REST API with Django? Or do we… @EmmaDelescolle’s take on implementing one's own mini REST framework in less than 100 lines of code https://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2025/may/22/why-need-3rd-party-app-rest-api-with-django/

I have finally written the #Django, #rspack and ManifestStaticFilesStorage blog post I wanted to write for a long time: https://406.ch/
The problem was always that I tried explaining how using these tools together is actually nice, but then I stumbled over the rspack configuration, and there's no way to call its configuration nice. Or is there?
