💡 I built a #Django web app with a small team for a local non-profit. This article describes my experience going from complete concept to a live site serving my local community. https://www.mattlayman.com/blog/2020/concept-to-live-with-django/

Released 0.13.1 of dj-angles, a way to make #Django templates look more like normal HTML. 🎉

Changes:
- Handle newlines in elements (very helpful for those automatic HTML formatters!)

Django people who deploy to a VPS: What is your current setup?

I've always used Ubuntu, Postgres, gunicorn, and nginx. But I'm curious how people have deviated from that approach.

Mostly thinking about small to medium projects, which run from a single server.

Django is exploring ways to handle security disclosures made publicly in issues/PRs instead of following our documented process. Other Python projects, how do you handle such cases? Share your insights! Also, if you're on GitHub, feel free to upvote & join the discussion: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/154262 🚀 #Python #Django #Security

What are the good success stories of #django in businesses? Focusing on medium/big size organizations/govts. Need some links to send to a person who wants to know more (management level) if they can use @django.

Ever wonder why the #Django `date` filter uses formats from PHP?! I did! 😂

So, I made a `dateformat` filter which uses the normal #Python `strftime` format strings (cheatsheet here: https://strftime.org). Docs for the new filter: https://dj-angles.adamghill.com/en/latest/filters/dateformat.html

New `dj-call` and `dj-model` mappers were also added. Docs for the tags: https://dj-angles.adamghill.com/en/latest/tag-elements.html

Both included in the newly published 0.17.0 of `dj-angles`. ✨

Agnès Haasser just gave a great overview of 2FA and strong user authentication in Django.
She showed how to use it, what options you have and where the shortfalls are. (The included texts aren't always user friendly and you have to account for time offset/drift of hardware timed code generators in corporate environments)

Benedikt really liked this talk and recommends watching it again when the recordings are released.

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.
