Scrapes substack articles into html and markdown

Target Audience

Substack Readers

This tool tries to automate login with user and pass in a config file.
It also uses user-agent to get around headless problems.

My code is much less lines (100 vs 500), no config or user pass needed which reduces accidents in leaking passwords.
It requires manually logging in with a headed browser and possibly solving captcha.
Login is a one-time task only before scraper goes through all the articles, and is much more robust to hidden errors.

How do you handle data collection in tables?

Hi,
I've been working on a few django projects lately, and as a blind user I really like finding ways to show data in tables. I don't mind giving non-defective eyeball folk the tools to see graphs, but for me being able to select the columns I can read or care about, and sort is really important.

That said, My thought is to just return JSON data to my django template and let js take over. I'm curious if there are libraries people prefer here, or if there's a cleaner way to do this keeping pagination and the like in tact.
Thanks,

UVForge – Interactive Python project generator using uv package manager (just answer prompts!)

# What My Project Does

[UVForge](https://github.com/manursutil/uvforge) is a CLI tool that bootstraps a modern Python project in seconds using uv. Instead of writing config files or copying boilerplate, you just answer a few interactive prompts and UVForge sets up:

* `src/` project layout
* `pytest` with example tests
* `ruff` for linting
* optional Docker and Github Actions support
* a clean, ready-to-go structure

# Target Audience

* Beginners and Advanced programmers who want to start coding quickly without worrying about setup.
* Developers who want a **“create-react-app” experience** for Python.
* Anyone who dislikes dealing with templating syntax or YAML files.

It’s not meant for production frameworks, it is just a quick, friendly way to spin up well-structured Python projects.

# Comparison

The closest existing tool is **Cookiecutter**, which is very powerful but requires YAML/JSON templates and some upfront configuration. UVForge is different because it is:

* **Fully interactive**: answer prompts in your terminal, no template files needed.
* **Zero config to start**: works out of the box with modern Python defaults.
* **Lightweight**: minimal overhead, just install and run.

Would love feedback from the community, especially on what features or integrations you’d like to see added!

Swizzle: flexible multi-attribute access in Python

Ever wished you could just do `obj.yxz` and grab all three at once? I got a bit obsessed playing around with `__getattr__` and `__setattr__`, and somehow it turned into a tiny library.

# What my Project Does

Swizzle lets you grab or assign multiple attributes at once, and it works with regular classes, dataclasses, Enums, etc. By default, swizzled attributes return a `swizzledtuple` (like an enhanced `namedtuple`) that keeps the original class name and allows continuous swizzling.

import swizzle

# Example with custom separator
@swizzle(sep='_', setter=True)
class Person:
def __init__(self, name, age, city, country):
self.name = name
self.age = age
self.city = city
self.country = country

p = Person("Jane", 30, "Berlin", "Germany")

# Get multiple attributes with separator

My first open-source package: feedunify, a tool for fetching and standardizing data feeds.

I'm not an expert, but I've been learning a lot and wanted to share my first-ever open-source package. It's called `feedunify`, and I built it to teach myself about async programming, testing, and the whole process of publishing to PyPI.

**What My Project Does**

`feedunify` is a library that fetches and standardizes data from multiple sources. You give it a list of URLs (RSS feeds, YouTube channels, etc.), and it returns a single, clean list of Python objects with a predictable structure.

* Fetches data concurrently using `asyncio` and `httpx`.
* Parses RSS, Atom, and standard YouTube channel URLs.
* Standardizes all data into a clean `FeedItem` object using `pydantic`.
* Has a full test suite built with `pytest`.

**Target Audience**

* Developers or hobbyists building simple data aggregation tools (like a news dashboard or a Discord bot).
* Anyone who wants to learn about `asyncio`, `pydantic`, and Python packaging, as it's a simple, real-world example.
* It's meant as a learning project, not a production-ready framework.

**Comparison**

The closest existing tools are powerful parsers like `feedparser`. `feedunify` is different because it's a higher-level orchestration tool. It uses `feedparser` under the hood but adds the layer of:

* **Concurrent fetching:** Pulls from all sources at once.
* **Source detection:** Automatically distinguishes between a normal

Hexora – static analysis tool for malicious Python scripts

Hi Reddit, I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions about my new tool.

What My Project Does

It's a new tool to detect malicious or harmful code. It can be used to review your project dependencies or just scan any scripts. It will show you potentially harmful code pieces which can be manually reviewed by a developer.


Here is a quick example:

> hexora audit test.py

warningHX2000: Reading from the clipboard can be used to exfiltrate sensitive data.
┌─ resources/test/test.py:3:8
│
1 │ import pyperclip
2 │
3 │ data = pyperclip.paste()
│ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ HX2000
│
= Confidence: High
Help: Clipboard access can be used to exfiltrate sensitive data such as passwords and keys.

AWS vs DigitalOcean

I help lead a small team of 4 eng working on a django app (with postgres & django). We're growing at a slow rate. We've so far deployed it to Heroku, but Heroku is really unreliable. Just in the last two months, there were two major outages.


I need to migrate away, but I'm not sure if we should switch to DigitalOcean or AWS. We really enjoyed Heroku being user-friendly, which is why I am considering DigitalOcean. None of us have any experience with AWS, so it would have to be me learning how to deploy and use AWS. For reliability, we'd be using multi-AZ on AWS or readonly databases on DigitalOcean.

How would you guys think about this? Is DigitalOcean less reliable because there is no notion of an AZ within a region? How much of a UX/DX improvement is DO compared to AWS in 2025?

Customizing your IPython shell in Docker and Docker Compose

Hi everyone,

I avoided customizing IPython at all in Docker Compose environments because I didn't want to impose my preferences and proclivities on my coworkers. But it turns out it's easy to customize without having to do that.

In this post: https://frankwiles.com/posts/customize-ipython-docker/

I walk you through:

* How to use a local profile in Docker Compose
* How to set simple configuration options (vi editing mode)
* Automatically import frequently used libraries
* Load project specific data you need frequently
* How to build powerful custom debugging tools

Hope you find it useful! Welcome any feedback you might have.

Complete beginner: How to deploy Django app to Windows Server?

Hi everyone!
I built a Django app on my MacBook that works fine locally, but I'm completely new to deployment and need to get it running on a Windows Server in our office.

Current situation:
\- Django app works with `python manage.py runserver` on macOS
\- Need to deploy to Windows Server (not cloud)
\- Zero deployment experience
\- Uses PostgreSQL, static files, and a requirements.txt
What I'm lost on:
\- How to transfer my code to Windows Server?
\- What do I install on the server to run Django?
\- How to make it accessible to others on our network?
\- Do I need IIS or something else?
\- How to handle the database and static files?

Wove: Beautiful Python async

Hi all! I've released a new python library that rethinks async coding, making it more concise and easier to read. Check it out and let me know what you think!

[https://github.com/curvedinf/wove/](https://github.com/curvedinf/wove/)

# What My Project Does

Here are the first bits from the github readme:

# Core Concepts

Wove is made from sensical philosophies that make async code feel more Pythonic.

* **Looks Like Normal Python**: You write simple, decorated functions. No manual task objects, no callbacks.
* **Reads Top-to-Bottom**: The code in a `weave` block is declared in a logical order, but `wove` intelligently determines the optimal *execution* order.
* **Automatic Parallelism**: Wove builds a dependency graph from your function signatures and runs independent tasks concurrently.
* **Normal Python Data**: Wove's task data looks like normal Python variables because it is, creating inherent multithreaded data safety in the same way as map-reduce.
* **Minimal Boilerplate**: Get started with just the `async with weave() as w:` context manager and the `@w.do` decorator.
* **Sync & Async Transparency**: Mix `async def` and `def` functions freely. `wove` automatically runs synchronous functions in a background thread pool to avoid blocking the event loop.
* **Zero Dependencies**: Wove is pure Python, using only the standard library and can be integrated into any Python project.

Websockets in django

I want to understand what are websockets and what are they mainly used for ??

for example rest apis fetch data from backend to serve front-end, what a typical use case for web sockets in a simple webapp.

also how to implement them in django. Do they integrate with django models in any sense ??

what components of django interact with them and maybe some small boilerplate code to help me understand what to do with web socket and how would be great and appreciated.
