6:30pm, Beginner's Track
Jim Walker, giving a talk on building classes in Python and double-underscore functions we commonly use with them.

6:55pm, Sponsor shout-outs, meetup announcements, hiring announcements, mingle.

7:15pm, Intermediate/Advanced Talks

Emily Freeman, a developer at Wazee Digital is going to give us a talk that's a little different than we usually have at Boulder Python.
"Pythons, vipers, danger noodles. Snakes are known by many names. Come hear how awesome 'nope ropes' are — undulatory locomotion?! — and what they can teach us about engineering."

Neal McBurnett, a Pythonic Data Scientist, is going to give us a talk about "Fire", a tool written by Google to produce command-line capable applications.

We might squeeze in a third talk, TBD.

  • framework-specific topics (Flask, Django, Mezzanine)
  • hosting platforms (App Engine/GCP, Azure, Heroku, etc)
  • development tools, advanced setups
  • testing tools (mocking libraries, Splinter/Selenium, etc)
  • package-specific talks (sqlalchemy, cartopy, etc)

  • lessons learned
  • IoT, Raspberry Pi, etc
  • automation topics like Mechanize, Ansible, Fabric
  • socket programming
  • static web site generators
