Virtual DragonPy Meetup November 2021

Hello, fellow Pythonistas!

We're happy to announce we are back already with another edition of our virtual meetup!

The link to the Zoom meeting will be sent to all attendees about half an hour before the meetup, but it will also be available in this event's sidebar or comments.

Talks:

◼︎ Andrey Vykhodtsev: Everyday Jupyter

Jupyter is a popular tool not only for data analysis but also as a an alternative to command-line REPL. In this talk, Andrey is going to share his practical tips for using Jupyter - configuring and installing, using shortcuts, debugger and interactive widgets, combining it with IDEs like Pycharm and VS Code, and also dealing with long running jobs & notifications.

◼︎ Matic Lubej: Graphviz (create charts and diagrams with Python)

Graphviz is a graph visualisation software, which means it can be very useful in all sorts of fields for depicting charts, flows, diagrams, etc. A few of the most prominent features of the tool are that it is open-source, automatic, and highly customisable, which we will explore through various examples in Python.

◼︎ Matic Lubej: FFMPEG (create videos with Python)

FFMPEG is a huge framework for dealing with audio/video streams. At its core it is a command-line-interface (CLI) tool, but several bindings exist. We will explore the tool for creating and manipulating cool videos and GIFs both via CLI and Python.

Note: Matic will give one longer and one shorter talk (thanks Matic!), so there is still room for some lightning talks. If you want to give one please leave a comment here or on this Github issue (https://github.com/ljpy/meetups/issues/52). We would love to have you!

See you soon!
