- Tadas Barzdžius. Speeding up Python with Rust
How to integrate Python and Rust languages? Can you use them together? In this talk I will show you that integrating Python and Rust is very easy and I will tell you how we used this integration to speed up specific workloads in one of our projects. (edited)
Tadas Barzdžius: I'm a software engineer. I started my career 9 years ago as a IT support specialist and moved up to system administrator and then to developer. My main languages, which I used in my career are Python and Rust. Currently I'm working at Oxylabs, where our main programming language is Python.

Kivy framework was used to create an application, which allows to significantly boost toddler's pre-school skills. Though Albertas has developed this application as a side project, significant results were achieved during one and a half years (till toddler became five). The key to success was to make a small step forward every day (or every week). Though the toddler was excited about new features and finding bugs in the application - it should be possible to achieve the same results without developing the application yourself :) This application will be released under AGPL licence. During this presentation features of the application will be presented and future of its development will be discussed.
