Title: Building web applications with Flask
Speaker: Mick Twomey
Description:
Flask is a popular web microframework for python, check it out at http://flask.pocoo.org/
I'll give a really quick introduction to what Flask is and how it works. I'll demo a small application and use it to show some tips and tricks for getting the most out of Flask.
A rough outline of what I'll be talking about:
- Introduction to Flask
- How Flask works, in particular its notion of context
- A Hello World application
- Testing Flask applications
- Templates and data
- Flask blueprints
- Flask signals
- Flask extensions
Title: Using Colander for data deserialization and validation.
Speaker: Diarmuid Bourke
Description:
This will be a quick presentation on an elegant library you can use in your webapps and APIs to help validate POST data. I'll be covering a basic example of its usage in an REST based API within the Pyramid framework.
