New to the web building community - need some advice

Hey Django community!

I'm new to the web building community but not entirely alien to programming. Though, having said that, my experience lies in SQL and SAS.

Can someone advice on the benefits of Django as compared to Flask if I want to build a website for price comparison?

I have an idea where users can compare prices and make the best decision for their purchase.

Read up on the benefits of flask and Django but I am not from a computer science background so I can be quite illiterate to the technical jargons.

Would appreciate if anyone could dumb it down for me and advice me on flask or Django for a "Price Comparison" website!

Thank u!

I'm a Python Backend Developer, How to Create a Modern and Fast Frontend?

Hi everyone,

I'm a backend developer working with Python and I'm looking for a simple and quick way to create a modern and clean frontend (web app) for my Python APIs.

I've been learning Next.js, but I find it a bit difficult and perhaps overkill for what I need.

Are there any tools or platforms for creating simple and modern web apps?
Has anyone else been in the same situation? How did you resolve it?
Do you know of any resources or websites for designing Next.js components without having to build them from scratch?

Thanks in advance for your opinions and recommendations!

Scope Boundaries for Notebooks — Research Study on an extension I've been developing

Hi Everyone. My name is Eric Rawn. I’m a PhD student at UC Berkeley working with my advisor Professor Sarah Chasins. I research how to make notebook programming environments better, and have been working on an extension for notebooks which introduces scope boundaries to collections of cells. We think this might help programmers avoid some of the pain points with notebooks, but we won’t know until we study its use in the real world. The goal is to make it easier to keep variables tidy within a notebook without requiring programmers to change how they like to use notebooks. We’re interested in evaluating how our extension aids how real users program (you all!), and so we’re running a 4-6 week study with folks who use Jupyter notebooks regularly in their everyday programming.

The extension will log some usage data locally on your machine, which you'll send to me at the end of the study. We'll then spend about an hour chatting about your experience, the kind of work you do daily, how you use notebooks, and any other thoughts or feedback you have. Participants will be compensated for their time spent interviewing, at $30/hour. The consent form has detailed information about the

Shed Skin restricted-Python-to-C++-compiler 0.9.9

I have just released version 0.9.9 of Shed Skin, a restricted-Python-to-C++ compiler. It comes with a whole host of small improvements, and also a nice new (constructive solid geometry) example, which becomes about 15 times faster on my system (not 15%.. 15 times!).

If you think this is a cool project, please consider helping out. There is always enough work (low-hanging fruit even) on both the Python and C++ side.

zealot: prevent N+1 queries in Django

hey everyone!

i just released zealot, a library for detecting N+1 queries in your Django project.

i've wanted something like this for a long time. there are some similar libraries out there, but none of them did everything i wanted, and the most popular would miss certain types of N+1.

zealot is pretty simply: install it, and it'll raise an exception (or log a warning) whenever it detects an N+1 query, with a helpful error message so you can fix it and be on your way.

all feedback is very welcome!

I made a Python library to plot chemical trends | Plotium

# What does my Project do?

Plotium is a python library used to plot chemical trends like Atomic radii, Electronegativity, etc of specific parts of the periodic table, like types of elements, group or a specific block.

Right now, Plotium can plot trends of:

1. Electronegativity

2. Density

3. Atomic Radii

4. Melting Point

5. Boiling Point



Divided into:

1. Block Wise (S,P,D,F)

2. Types (Actinoids, Lanthanoids, etc)

3. Groups (1 - 18)

# Target Audience

Students/people who love chemistry. This library will also be useful for teaching students several exceptions and trends.

# Comparison

I haven't seen any trend plotter other than one hotmap plotter. But what I'm aiming is graphing these trends.

# GitHub

Does anyone know of an extension that will auto create a client class for all my endpoints?

Say I’m using DRF with a bunch of model viewsets. I have a swagger gen extension but is there one that will collect all those same endpoints and create a Python class or file containing all of them? Like using requests or urllib or something like that and have all the endpoints auto implemented for you? I’m sure it’s possible (and opinionated) just haven’t come across anything I’m aware of or could find on google.

Django cache does not support hash(redis)

I am studying django and i just learned that django's build in cache framework DOES NOT support redis's hash.

Is it strange? for such a mature framework but its built in cache does not support in-memory database's hash? i asked chatgpt and they confirmed it.

I manually created my own function that uses the built in cache.set and put a json.dumps(dict) in it and in my redis GUI it still shows up under the string. I am worried that my own custom function may not be as efficient as the redis's hash since its really considered as a string. Is it advisable to put a dict as string or should i just opt out of the django cache and use a third party library to handle redis?
