DJANGO AS YOUR DATA MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

If you come to Python to work with data, most likely you are intimately familiar with its data science ecosystem, which includes Anaconda, Jupyter and Pandas, among others. Probably though you are less familiar with the other side of Python, including frameworks, ORMs and template engines, traditionally used to create web applications.

This talk aims at blurring the border between data science and web development ecosystems. I will show how Django, extremely popular framework for creating web applications, can be successfully applied to some common tasks of data processing and data analysis and how it can be used seamlessly with your tools of choice.

The talk can be interesting for Python data analysts who want to extend their knowledge beyond the traditional DS/ML stack. It can also be helpful for beginners interested in web development with Django.

Roman one of the organizers of the Python Porto community and the head of the web development team at Doist and. He lives in Porto for almost four years, and works with Python for more than a decade.

QUICK AND ROBUST API WITH DJANGO REST FRAMEWORK

API development is a common task in development world. Django REST Framework provides a robust and quick way to developed standard API's with the best practices built-in. On this talk Tomás will present a practical example of using the framework, with support of user registration, login, logout functionality, API tokens and many more.
