Getting Pants 👖 on: builds in large Python codebases

Oxford Python is back this November with a talk about build systems, AND we also have a free slot for a lighting talk (~10min) ⚡️

Lightning talks are a low-pressure opportunity to share your experience, whether you're a seasoned Python developer or just getting started, we believe your insights are valuable to the group!

If you are interested you can contact the group organisers via MeetUp direct message or the Oxford Python twitter.

Talk: Getting Pants on: builds in large Python codebases

As the amount of source code in a project grows, the time it takes to build (format, compile, lint, type check, and test) almost always increases and the tooling used to build the code so far may prove to become inadequate. To mitigate this, engineering organizations typically start adopting the build systems designed for large monorepository in minds such as Bazel, Buck, or Pants. These build systems let you represent your source code components and relationships between them with the help of build metadata and tackle the build speed time growth through incremental builds and parallelization. In this talk, we'll explore how Pants v2 can help your project to build and ship code faster!

The Venue
We would like to thank the amazing team at GitHub Oxford for kindly hosting the event at their offices in Oxford.

If you would like to join us for a pythonic evening followed by an optional visit to a local watering hole after you would be warmly welcome.
