How do you organize your flask projects?

Do you mimic the structure of a django project? Something else? Would like to hear what other people here do as I am pretty used to opinionated frameworks for web like aforementioned django and spring (boot) and feel a little disorganized with how I have my projects right now.

Should all Python projects have type hinting?

I recently released a very simple API wrapper and in my efforts to become a better programmer I asked in a Python Discord for feedback.


One bloke was very adamant I should use type hints. I understand the need/desire for type hints but this commentator basically was implying that all Python code should be written with type hints.

For a simple project I didn't think it was necessary but I'm curious as to what this community thinks.

How do you make the decision as to when to use type hints? Do you do it for all projects, regardless of size? What are your general thoughts?

Terrified of Security Risks: How to Safeguard My Django Backend for Public Deployment

I've become very proficient in developing useful, intuitive, powerful applications in React + Django + Postgres, and "deployed" a handful of apps that get used by hundreds of people - but all on a company server behind a company VPN.

Now I'm working at a much smaller company, and need staff and crew members to be able to access it from anywhere they have web access. I'm terrified to deploy the apps to the web where anyone could try to hack it, and private data gets leaked.

FWIW, the app will have a web and a React Native app, so I have to use JWT for auth. I'm using strawberry-django-auth.

I've deployed personal projects to a Digital Ocean droplet and followed every best practice article I could find for securing Ubuntu Server and Postgres. But it was used by 3 people and held no information of consequence.

How have you all become proficient in authentication, securing server and databases, and backups, so you can build and deploy apps with minimal risk? I wish there was a Django as a service where I had the full code control as on my dev environment, and it just handled all the production considerations.

Flask SocketIO with Gunicorn

I'm at my wits end.

Basically, my flask webapp allows users to upload videos, then the DeepFace library processes the videos and detects the facial expressions of the people in the videos. I used ProcessPoolExecutor to run the facial recognition classes that I created for DeepFace. I use socketio to track the progress of video processing.

Now I'm at the deployment phase of the project using gunicorn and nginx, and I'm running into some issues with gunicorn. For some reason, a gunicorn timeout error causes my app to fail when processing the video, this never happens during development.

Saas targeting finance entity and banks.

I'm planning to build my SaaS product the approach the banking and finance sector. What is pushing me back is the security issues.
I'm afraid client won't trust me app in this matter if I build it myself from scratch. What I mean registration, authentication authorization and security.

Is there any away that I can use a well développed platform where I only need to attach my part of coding to it and this sector still trust it?

select dropdown with infinite scroll

Hi, basically I'm trying to do a drop-down menu where all the option are filled with the info of the database, the problem is that there are so many options and the template crash, so I figured out using Ajax or pagination may work, but what i want is that the options work like an infinite scroll, so user see 10/15 options and while scrolling down more options appear, but it doesn't work. What can I do?

I've created a book which contains everything you need to know about Python

Hello Reddit!

I've created a Python book called "Your Journey to Fluent Python." This book is ideal for everyone who wants to learn programming, and even for those who are already at an intermediate or expert level.

Additionally, I have created a Discord server to gather our Python community! The book doesn't stretch the material you need to learn, and that's what I find lacking in other books.

I look forward to hearing your feedback! Put a star if you find it interesting and useful!

[Project] LLM based Python docs that never touches your original code

Documentation is tedious and time-consuming. I thought LLMs might be the answer, but they tend to hallucinate, inventing functions or misinterpret code. Not ideal when you're trying to document real, working code

So I built lmdocs. It can:

* Reference documentation from imported libraries 
* Guarantees that your original code is unchanged
* Work with OpenAI and lo¯cal LLMs

I'd love to get some feedback from other devs. If you're interested, you can check it out here: [https://github.com/MananSoni42/lmdocs](https://github.com/MananSoni42/lmdocs)

It's open source, so feel free to contribute or just let me know what you think.

What would you improve about Django framework?

If you were part of the Django committee, and you were in charge or deciding where would Django head for its version 6 and in the following years, what would you suggest to the rest of them? What do you think Django is lacking and where it can be improved? If you think the framework is already perfect please also say it in the comments.

Running Python in Web Browsers

Python is one of the world's most popular programming languages and the web is the most ubiquitous application platform. There are several projects which aim to enable Python to run in web browsers.

* [Brython](https://www.brython.info/) is an implementation of Python 3 written in JavaScript.
* [Skulpt](https://skulpt.org/) is an implementation of Python 2/3 written in JavaScript.
* [PyScript](https://pyscript.net/) is an implementation of Python 3 written in WebAssembly.
* [Transcrypt](https://www.reddit.com/r/VistaPython/) is a Python to JavaScript compiler - unfortunately, the project seems to have been abandoned.
* [Batavia](https://github.com/beeware/batavia) is a Python virtual machine written in JavaScript - unfortunately, the project seems to have been abandoned.

Finally, I have created [VistaPython](https://www.reddit.com/r/VistaPython/) which is also intended to run Python 3 in web browsers but by using a bytecode interpreter written in JavaScript.

Each design has strengths and weaknesses:

Both Brython and Skulpt use hand-written Python parsers which are difficult to maintain. VistaPython uses a parser generator, [Antlr](https://www.antlr.org/), to automatically generate the JavaScript code for the parser. The parser can be updated to match the latest Python version by simply running a script.

Also, both Brython and Skulpt generate JavaScript code which is then evaluated. In VistaPython, the compiler produces a "code object" which is then executed using the bytecode interpreter. The first approach will

Thread : Recommend the best book/blog/tutorial articles you have gone-though in Django

Let me Start :

# 1 . Theory + Small Projects for Beginners

These books are very beginner friendly, if you know a bit of django I will suggest go for the PROFESSIONAL and API books.You will buid some simle app , even deploy to heroku or Python anywhere.

# 2. Cookboook for Beginner

https://preview.redd.it/o3limovmz38d1.png?width=1166&format=png&auto=webp&s=bf0692bfe41f1f6529d6ca3ebd560a2081751d92

It covers -

1. Blog App
2. Social Media Site
3. Ecom Site
4. CMS - by building a e-learning system

Github Link : https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Django-4-by-example

# Suggest more books ? Also Lemme know if you know good blogs/articles/personal blogs where people explains theory as well go though projects hands-on.
