Authentication in Django - Your Opinions

Hello,

I'm on a constant learning path with Django, I want some recommendations from you.

Currently I'm working on a project, to mainly showcase that I can master Authentication in Django.

I implemented Session-based authentication, Oauth2 and JWT Authentication.

I want to know what can I add to this project, to enhance my skills ?

ANY info is helpful.

My type-safe asyncio lib and the fingerprinting guide it spawned

I wanted to share a project that’s been my passion, a asyncio\-native automation library (pydoll). My main goal was to build a 100% type-safe API on top of the chaotic Chrome DevTools Protocol.

This meant engineering a type-safe core by mapping the entire CDP protocol using TypedDicts. This gives the user full IDE autocomplete for every command and event. I wrote about that design philosophy here: `https://pydoll.tech/docs/deep-dive/fundamentals/typing-system/`

It also required deep research to build the advanced evasion features. I ended up going down the rabbit hole and writing a full manual on modern bot detection (TLS/JA3, Canvas, biometrics), which I'm also sharing: `https://pydoll.tech/docs/deep-dive/fingerprinting/`

The project is OSS and was a massive deep-dive into asyncio and typing. I'd love your feedback on the architecture.

Will we ever see decent typing support in Django?

Yes, there are the django stubs, but they are definitely not exhaustive.

Do you think Django will ever have first-class support for typing, especially as it seems like the Python ecosystem as a whole is moving in this direction?

State of Django 2025 from JetBrains

A new set of survey results just dropped, this time in the form of Django-specific data gathered by JetBrains:


[Django Developers Survey 2025 Results](https://lp.jetbrains.com/django-developer-survey-2025/)

Some key takeaways:

* HTMX and Alpine.js are the fastest-growing JavaScript frameworks used with Django.
* HTMX is fantastic - my personal take ;)
* 38% of developers use AI to learn Django.
* 3 out of 4 Django developers have 3+ years of professional coding experience.
* 63% already use type hints, and more plan to.
* This is good. Type hints were a good idea.
* 76% use PostgreSQL as their database backend.

TelegramCLIBot - Control your server via Telegram from anywhere

I released **TelegramCLIBot v0.1.0**, a personal Telegram bot that turns your phone into a remote CLI for your self-hosted server.

# What it does

Execute shell commands on your server directly from Telegram. Perfect for when you're away from your desk and need to:

* Start/stop your home VPN when traveling
* Restart services
* Run any custom automation scripts remotely

# Key Features

* **Direct command execution** via `/run <command>`
* **Custom command shortcuts** \- Create aliases for frequently used commands (e.g., `/startvpn` → `sudo wg-quick up wg0`)
* **User whitelist authentication** \- Only specified Telegram user IDs can control the bot

# Security Notice

This is designed **exclusively for personal/self-hosted use**. It executes arbitrary shell commands with the privileges of the user running the bot.

**Security measures:**

* User ID whitelist (configured in YAML)
* Recommended to run as non-root user
* 2FA required on Telegram account

# Why I Built This

I wanted a simple way to manage my home server from anywhere without opening SSH ports on my router or dealing with port forwarding/dynamic DNS.

**The Telegram approach:**

* No ports to open - the bot connects outbound to Telegram's servers
* Works from anywhere with internet (Telegram handles the routing)
* Clean mobile interface - just send a message
* Can start your VPN remotely when you

Just launched CrossTray

Hi Guys, I just created a new python library and I would like you to check it out and let me know what you guys think about it?

You can download it using

pip install crosstry

It is a lightweight Python library for creating system tray/menu bar icons across Windows, macOS & Linux (Windows for now as MVP).

But for now it only supports the Windows as this is the MVP idea and I would like you guys to come and contribute. I would be happy to see issues and pull requests coming.

Convert Streamlit App to Django

What's up guys!
I've seen a similar post questioning this a year ago, but the OP just didn't give any context 🤨 So I'll make different:

Currently on my work I'm building a Businesses Intelligence Web App with Streamlit. So far so good! I actually have almost zero complaints about it and I think I made the right choice choosing Streamlit instead of other frameworks when I started this project. Specially because it's quite simple. No databanks (for now) and nothing complex. The application just does a ETL process with some data from Excel and JSON files inside a GitHub repo and displays dinamically for the user.

However, I'm looking forward to other opportunities. I was thinking if would be worth it to refactor my project to a Django + Vue/Angular application. The only reason I would do that is so I could upgrade my portfolio and experience 🤓 I already have some experience with Vue and Django, and Streamlit is not a desired stack out there for the majority of companies...

So, what do you think ?

🌟 Myfy: a modular Python framework with a built-in frontend

What It Does

Tired of gluing FastAPI + Next.js together, I built **Myfy** — a modular Python framework that ships with a frontend by default.

Run:

myfy frontend init

and you instantly get:

📝 Jinja2 templates
🎨 DaisyUI 5 + Tailwind 4 + Vite + HMR
🌗 Dark mode
🚀 Zero config that works out of the box

Target Audience

For Python devs who love backend work but want a frontend without touching JS.
Perfect for side projects, internal tools, or fast prototypes.

Comparison

Unlike FastAPI + Next.js or Flask + React, Myfy gives you a full-stack Python experience with plain HTML + modern CSS.

Why is it so hard for me to think like a programmer?

I’ve learned all the Python basics: variables, loops, functions, conditionals, even *args and all that. I can follow tutorials and solve simple problems on Codewars if I already know what’s being asked.

But when it comes to actually using what I know like building something from scratch or solving a problem I come up with myself my brain just freezes. I can’t seem to connect the dots or figure out how to put everything together.

It’s not that I don’t understand the syntax, I just can’t seem to think creatively with code yet. Is this normal? How do you get past this stage?

Solvex - An open source FastAPI + SciPy API I'm building to learn optimization algorithms

Hey,

I find the best way to understand a complex topic is to build something with it. To get a handle on optimization algorithms, I've started a new project called **Solvex**.

It's a REST API built with FastAPI + SciPy that solves linear programming problems. It's an early stage learning project, and I'd love to get your feedback.

**Repo Link:** [`https://github.com/pranavkp71/solvex`](https://github.com/pranavkp71/solvex)

Here are the details for the showcase:

**What My Project Does**

Solvex provides a simple REST API that wraps optimization solvers from the SciPy library. Currently, it focuses on solving linear programming problems: you send a JSON payload with your problem's objective, constraints, and bounds, and it returns the optimal solution.

It uses FastAPI, so it includes automatic interactive API documentation and has a full CI/CD pipeline with tests.

**Example Use Case (Portfolio Optimization):**

Python

import requests

payload = {
"objective": [0.12, 0.15, 0.10], # Maximize returns
"constraints_matrix": [
[1, 1, 1], # Total investment <= 100k
[1,
