Most people think Django needs a full project to be useful 🤔
What if you could use the ORM alone?
One file. No server. No migrations.
Connect to an existing database and explore it with QuerySets.
Django as a lightweight data tool.

I’ve just filled in the Python Developers Survey ✅
If you use Python at work or in your projects, it’s worth a few minutes.
Python is a community-driven project, and this is how our voices get heard.

This year I didn’t write a big “Year in Review” 😅
I preferred to spend time on smaller, focused write-ups: DjangoCon Europe & US, EuroPython, PyCon Italia, Django Groups workshops, and a year of building Python Pescara.
All those stories are there 👉 www.paulox.net
#YearInReview #Python #Community
I’ve published a personal retrospective on Python Pescara and our 2025.
Meetups, Django Girls, conferences, and what community building looked like for us over the year.

I’ve published a retrospective on Django On The Med, a small standalone Django contributor sprint
A few months later, I reflect on what worked, what didn’t, and the value that emerged beyond code when the focus was on people and being together
