Why Django

Why would you pick Django over other similar frameworks such Laravel, Ruby on Rails, Phoenix, Adonis, etc?

I hear lots of people say Django very rarely has breaking changes - do you stand by that?

New Deep Learning Framework; Zephyr is on early release; active development

What My Project Does

It is deep learning library / framework on top of JAX. Zephyr was motivated by an inclination to writing FP because JAX was FP. Zephyr reflects the nature of networks and layers, they are simply mathematical functions. By reflecting this, you are able to write code quicker and easier with minimal learning curve.

Target Audience

This framework is not ready for production nor general use. It is in active development and if you do use it, I highly appreciate it and so if you submit reports or requests, I will tend to them immediately.

It is for people who would like to use JAX in an FP way.

Comparison 

Within JAX: Flax, Haiku, and Equinox are your options; within python you additionally have Tensorflow and PyTorch. All of which are OO. In contrast, Zephyr is FP and you write nets and layers as functions.

OO - FP: Because zephyr is FP, it looks similar to math and it enjoys shorter code because there is no 1) initialize the module 2) call/forward/apply the module. There are only function calls. FP is more explicit tho

Here is a short example. (Some variables are not specified for brevity). README for more.

Example: Linear Layer Only

Replacing CharField with ForeignKey

In my model Event, I have the following field defined:

  
event_type = models.CharField('Kursart', max_length=20, choices=EVENT_TYPE_ALL, default=ALLGEMEIN)

Meanwhile, the application has grown and I have to gerneralize the event_type. The optimal solution would be a ForeignKey to a model EventType holding attributes currently also part of Event.
I have established the model EventType. Now I wonder, how do I migrate the CharField to the ForeignKey? makemigrations and migrate doesn't work (obviously) because names, datastructures (ie. everything) has changed.

A migration is necessary to keep the data.

How did you get your first Django job?

Hi folks

My journey started on a job posting on social media about Someone asks about Django developer before that i got a lot of rejection before interview because of lack of experience back then

We had a good interview and they gave me a task to add to their project and i did that correctly and that's how i got my first job as a DJANGO developer

What problems do Large Language Models (LLMs) actually solve very well? D

While there's growing skepticism about the AI hype cycle, particularly around chatbots and RAG systems, I'm interested in identifying specific problems where LLMs demonstrably outperform traditional methods in terms of accuracy, cost, or efficiency. Problems I can think of are:

\- words categorization

\- sentiment analysis of no-large body of text

\- image recognition (to some extent)

\- writing style transfer (to some extent)

what else?

How do you manage email signups & newsletters in Django?

Hi all,

I've built a lot with Django but never found a satisfactory way to manage my email signups and sending newsletters. So far I've been working with a Newsletter model and then crafting emails by hand - ugly!

Have you found a better way?

Component sources

Are there any sources for making templates that can act like components?

Sort of how react libraries have material where they have docs on how to use their “select” widget

Is there any source like that for Django otherwise I have to make my own custom stuff

Rio: WebApps in pure Python – A fresh Layouting System

Hey everyone!

We received a lot of encouraging feedback from you and used it to improve our framework. For all who are not familiar with our framework, Rio is an easy-to-use framework for creating websites and apps which is based entirely on Python.

From all the feedback the most common question we've encountered is, "How does Rio actually work?" Last time we shared our concept about components (what are components, how does observing attributes, diffing, and reconciliation work).

Now we want to share our concept of our own fresh layouting system for Rio. In our wiki we share our thoughts on:

* What Makes a Great Layout System
* Our system in Rio with a 2-step-approach
* Limitations of our approach

Feel free to check out our Wiki on our [Layouting System](https://github.com/rio-labs/rio/wiki/Layouting-System).

Take a look at our playground, where you can try out our layout concept firsthand with just a click and receive real-time feedback: [Rio - Layouting Quickstart](https://rio.dev/docs/howto/layout-guide)

Thanks and we are looking forward to your feedback! :)

Task queue with asyncio support

I like Django for it's time and battle tested codebase. Its ORM is super intuitive to use. DRF fills in the gaps which allows me to define Schemas for my request validation and expose APIs as OpenAPI spec.

I process simple CURD requests within Django. For long running tasks, I am looking out to select a library which supports

* asyncio natively (I should be able to define my tasks as `async def`) [ Most of my long running jobs are io intensive and async native library will help me there ].
* ability to handle Django ORM use cases in the async tasks, like fetching and saving database objects (preferably using `sync_to_async`) till Django comes up with native support for asyncio in their ORM
* ability to send tasks to rabbitmq instead of redis (I like the stronger "exactly once", "message acknowledgement", "custom routing" etc. guarantees and functionalities provided by rabbitmq).

I have started to develop strong dislike for Celery's pre-forking model. The workers seem to crash without any particular reason, with Signal 11, Signal 5 etc. Celery does not also have async support natively, and I feel discomfort in monkey patching it using gevent.

Has anyone run into similar requirements? How did you

Introducing jinpro -- Vue/React like components, all in Flask and Jinja

Hey all! Longtime lurker here.

I always really enjoyed the syntax of custom components in Vue, React, and other .JS frameworks, but hated the overhead of those frameworks, and also don't really like Javascript that much (if I did, I'd learn Node.js).

I checked high and low for something that did what I want, but the only one is a library called JinjaX -- and no matter how many times I read the documentation, it simply did not work on my machine. No errors, just... didn't do anything.

So, I write a really simple and small preprocessor that allows for this kind of behavior.
In essence, you create a file (like Button.jinja) and define what arguments it takes. Then, in your jinja templates for other pages, you call it like an HTML tag -- <Button color="red">Click ME!</Button>.

Finally, rather than using the built-in render_template function, you use the JinjaProcessor.render function, which behaves exactly like Jinja's render_template -- except it looks for those capital-letter tags, renders them into HTML with the template context, and then renders the whole page. It also works recursively, so components can call on other components (like a PageLayout calling on a Navbar).

It's available on github and PyPI (through pip).

What Free Host Providers do you Use for deploying RESTful API ?

Until this moment I had using Render which provides a free limited plan for deoloying Python or any other API, pythonanywhere is another option which allow deploying for free.

If you're testing a project you need to deploy the API, where you do it for free?
