Django: An Introduction
presented by: Jeff Anderson

Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Using Django makes web programming fast and fun, and it will even make your teeth whiter. Django provides tools and libraries that help streamline the development of just about any web application. Let's look at how we can take this Python power, and make it fit all together and purr like a kitten. This is for you web developers out there who want to build your applications faster, better, and more securely using this wonderful, modern web framework.

This presentation will be jam-packed with practical stuff that isn't made obvious in the Django tutorial. You'll learn how everything fits together. Some basic HTML familiarity needed. Programming and web programming (even a little) is very beneficial, as we will look at several code examples. A brain picking session will follow the main presentation.
