Talk #1: Graphical Interfaces in CircuitPython
Speaker: Jonathan Parke

general concepts that can be applied to other hardware.

Lightning talk: The Other Elses
Speaker: Jack Bennetto
Description: A description of for-else, while-else, and try-else clauses in python and how you can use them, both for practical value and to show off your knowledge of obscure python. Probably a bit of history will be included as well

Talk #2: Building RESTful APIs with Python and AEPs
Speaker: Yusuke Tsutsumi
Description: This talk explains the aep.dev project (https://aep.dev/) which provides language-agnostic design guidance for REST APIs, then walks through how to build an API in practice and use it with the tooling and ecosystem.
