Python Porto

PyCoffee is an experimental format of informal Python meetups, organized by Python Porto in partnership with Porto i/o. There is no agenda and no speakers. It’s for those who is ready to start Sunday with a cup of hot coffee and a chat with like-minded python developers or beginners. We speak English or Portuguese, and we welcome guests with different backgrounds, coming from different countries and pursuing their own very different goals. Usually we start by introducing ourselves, our Python experience and try to formulate our expectations from a meetup. Then altogether we come up with some ideas or mini-projects to work on. We can work together or split in groups. For beginners. We can help to familiarize in a Python environment and show how to install Python and third-party packages, how to organize the code in the project, and in general, how to go from scratch to something useful and exciting. For more experienced developers. We share our experience and our challenges, play with new libraries and write some code together. Beginner groups are often led by more experienced developers willing to share their knowledge with newcomers. Any questions, please let us know!

If you happen to have some ideas, share it with organizers. FLYING DRONES WITH PYTHON Our first speaker Dimitri Herrero is the Tech Lead of Business Intelligence at Kiwi.com. There they love everything related to flying, including drones. In this talk, Dimitri introduce you to the Dronecode project. He’s going to walk you briefly through all the components you need to build a drone, and then he will present a demo of the Dronecode Python SDK. We hope that by the end of the session you'll have an interest in building your first drone app on Python and a clear understanding of how to do it. DEMOCRATIZING DATA AT KIWI.COM Artur Mindiiarov is a Data Engineer at Kiwi.com. He will be talking about the ongoing effort to make data open and accessible to everyone. He shares how using the power of graph databases and natural language processing they built a Slack chatbot, helping them in finding the right information. It’s all built in Python (of course!) with help of Elasticsearch, Neo4j and Dialogflow.
