🚀 DRF Auth Kit - Complete DRF Authentication with Type Safety & OpenAPI


After months of development and fixing issues from the initial release, I'm excited to reintroduce DRF Auth Kit - a modern Django REST Framework authentication toolkit that addresses the pain points of existing packages.

What makes it different:

🔥 Full Type Safety - Complete type hints with mypy/pyright support
📋 Perfect OpenAPI Schema - Auto-generated docs that work flawlessly with any client generator
🍪 JWT Cookies - Secure HTTP-only cookies with automatic token management
🔐 Easy MFA Setup - Email & app-based MFA with backup codes, proper OpenAPI schemas included
🌐 Simple Social Auth - Django Allauth integration with minimal setup (like headless mode but easier)
🌍 57 Languages - Built-in i18n support

Why we built this:

Inspired by dj-rest-auth and django-trench, but enhanced to solve their limitations:
- No more broken OpenAPI schemas
- Complete type safety throughout
- Zero manual schema fixes needed
- Easy customization without breaking functionality

Perfect for:
- Teams wanting bulletproof API documentation
- Projects requiring type-safe authentication
- Anyone tired of manually fixing auth schemas
- Developers who value clean, well-documented code

pip install drf-auth-kit[all]  # Includes MFA + social auth

Why isn't the copy() method part of the Sequence and MutableSequence ABCs?

The Sequence ABC from collections.abc does not include an abstract method copy(). What are the reasons for that design choice?

Note that I am not asking how to work with that design choice. Instead I am trying to understand it.

Scintilla, Qt and alternative text editor widgets

Hello fellow python enjoyers,

I'm currently considering moving away from PyQt6 to go on PySide6 due to license issues. However, it would imply moving away from QScintilla as a text editor too, since there is no bindings for Scintilla on PySide side.

I don't want to go back to "default" QPlainTextEdit since my needs are close to the ones of a Source Code editor (especially indentation guides).

Do any of you know an alternative? I'm leaning towards Monaco via QTMonaco, but there might be better options or easier to adapt (I still need to find out resources regarding Monaco).

Flask + ReactJs + MySQL + Crawler

Is it possible to create a web app for web crawling such as Broken Acces Control vulnerability using said language? I was planning to use

Backend : Flask
Frontend : ReactJS
Database : MySQL
Crawler : Playwright

Also, does that mean using reactjs as frontend will be different as using PHP, HTML and Bootstrap??

Fake OS - Worth making?

So, a while ago i discovered this repo on github: https://github.com/crcollins/pyOS

In summary, its a program trying to simulate an OS by having a kernel, programs (terminal commands), a filesystem etc.

Ive been impressed of the dedication for something that isnt useful in your everyday life. Though ive seen the small group of repositories making similar projects fascinating, and thought about making my own, but ive yet to come up a reason for it.

So here i am, wanting to ask:

Is something like this worth making, following the structure of a real computer, containing a kernel, drivers, the OS layer, BIOS etc?

What would be ways to make it useful / more interesting?

All feedback is appreciated, thanks in advance :O

Tines API Wrapper

Links

PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/Tapi/
GitHub: https://github.com/1Doomdie1/Tapi
Pepy.tech: stats

So what is Tines?

In short, Tines is a no-code automation platform designed for security and IT teams. It allows users to build, orchestrate, and automate workflows such as incident response, threat detection, and IT operations without needing to write code. By connecting to APIs and tools, Tines helps streamline repetitive tasks, reduce response times, and improve operational efficiency. Althought it is marketed as a "no-code" solution, that doesn't mean it doesn't have the ability to run code. Quite the opposite, it provides you with a dedicated action which allows you to write and execute your own python code.

What My Project Does

I created Tapi as a Python wrapper for the Tines API. Rather than dealing with raw HTTP requests or parsing JSON by hand, Tapi provides structured classes like WorkflowsAPI, ActionsAPI, CredentialsAPI, and others. These give you a clean way to interact with your Tines tenant and its endpoints.

Examples

Pulling information about your tenant would look somehting like this:

from json import dumps
from tapi import TenantAPI

def main():
DOMAIN = "my-cool-domain-1234"

Improving the performance of Python/Django project with the help of Go?

In my work I use Django and I love it because I've been able to deliver some projects very quickly thanks to it providing an easy structure to follow and compose, but I've been learning Go recently and I've loved how efficient it can be, I was thinking of trying to rewrite some jobs I have in celery to Go to see if there's any improvement in performance, since we use VPS and before scaling I would like to see if Go can help us support more work with the current resources.

I would like to know if you have had experience integrating Go into Python or Django projects especially, and what you have discovered and how you have done it.

super lightweight stateful flow

What My Project Does

A lightweight AI-Ready Python framework for building asynchronous data processing pipelines with stateful nodes.

Target Audience

Those who wants to build AI application backends or lightweight data process backends. The project is not massivly tested in production.

Comparison

Compared to hamilton, airflow, pydag, etc., OoFlow is super lightweight and has very easy to use APIs, no restrictions on code positions, and its nodes/tasks are stateful, enabling cross-messages business logic.

\----------------------------------------------

when i was building new applications(some were AI related), i found the programming paradigm changed, because the first token/byte of each phase deeply affect user experiences.

i had to make every step processing data asynchronous, stateful, parallel.

duvc-ctl Windows library for UVC camera control and Property control

I made this for controlling USB cameras on Windows without needing any extra SDKs or serial controls for PTZ. It’s called duvc-ctl. Supports C++, Python(other languages support coming soon), and a CLI for adjusting pan/tilt/zoom(ptz), focus, exposure, and other camera properties.

https://github.com/allanhanan/duvc-ctl

What my project does:
Control camera properties such as Brightness, Exposure, Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and other camera properties available in DirectShow
It exposes the DirectShow api to access these properties easily in C++ and binds it to python

Linux already has v4l2-ctl which is waay better but windows was lacking

Would be interested to hear if others find this useful or have ideas for where it could fit into workflows.

I personally found this useful where I didn't want to mess with visca or other serial protocols and just wanted to control it from python with just the usb connected

I might add linux support but I'm open to hear any opinions on this for now

I built a full programming language interpreter in Python based on a meme

The project started as a joke based on the "everyone talks about while loops but no one asks WHEN loops" meme, but evolved into a complete interpreter demonstrating how different programming paradigms affect problem-solving approaches.

# What My Project Does

WHEN is a programming language interpreter written in Python where all code runs in implicit infinite loops and the only control flow primitive is when conditions. Instead of traditional for/while loops, everything is reactive:

# WHEN code example
count = 0

main:
count = count + 1
print("Count:", count)
when count >= 5:
print("Done!")
exit()

The interpreter features:

Full lexer, parser, and AST implementation
Support for importing Python modules directly
Parallel and cooperative execution models
Interactive graphics and game development capabilities (surprisingly)

You can install it via pip: pip install when-lang

# Target Audience

This is Currently a toy/educational project, but exploring use cases in game development, state machine modeling,

Python 3.13 is 10% slower than 3.12 for my file parser

I have written a custom parser for a game-specific file format.

It performs particularly bad when there's too many nested references (A reference to a different object in an object), but that's a different problem on its own.

The current problem I have is with the performance degradation by almost 10% when using Python 3.13. I am trying to figure out what changes happened in 3.13 that might be relevant for my issue.

I should probably attach the concrete code, so here is the method in question.

filter on model

Hello, in my template i have some filters to filter items basing on each item property. Now I need to add a checkbox called "flat" which only shows items if the heel_height property value is equal to 0.

i created flat() method on models.py


class Shoe(models.Model):
    heelheight = models.IntegerField(default=0, blank=False, null=False)
    def flat(self):
        if self.heelheight == 0:
            return True
        else:
            return False


I added that field to the forms.py

class SearchForm(ModelForm):
     class Meta:
         model = Shoe
         fields = 'season', 'color', 'size', 'flat',


and i added it to my existing searchform on template

            <div class="fieldWrapper">
