7:00 Meredyyd Luff - Anvil: Full-stack Web Apps with Nothing but Python

Building for the modern web is complicated and error-prone: a typical web app requires five different languages and four or five frameworks just to get started. Wouldn't it be nicer if we could do it all in Python? With Anvil, you can design your page visually, write your browser-side and server-side code in pure Python, and even set up a built-in database in seconds. In this talk, Meredydd will walk us through how Anvil works under the bonnet, and the challenges of building a programming system that's easy to use without sacrificing power.

Meredydd has been programming since the halcyon days of QBasic and Delphi, when it was easy to get started building software. He created Anvil to bring those days back. Meredydd has worked in startups from telecomms to music, and has a PhD in the usability of programming from Cambridge.
