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?

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.
