In this interactive workshop, you'll learn how to build a modern CRUD application using Django, HTMX, and AlpineJS. It's all about making web development faster, more fun, and accessible for backend developers. With a small group size and hands-on guidance, you’ll create your own project while exploring new tools and simplifying your workflow—all at your own pace.
Duration: 2 days
Level: Intermediate
Once upon a time, if you wanted a truly modern web frontend experience for your Python web app you would have limited options. Many people would reach for heavy frontend tools and frameworks such as React, Vue or one of their many competitors. And those tools generally have their own recommendations around testing.
Times have changed - tools like HTMX and AlpineJS are taking Python Web dev by storm and simplifying the creation of modern frontends
These tools make full-stack web dev fast and fun, they simplify development, shrink code bases, and give backend devs the ability to do modern frontend work. In my personal experience, I've seen the adoption of these tools lead to massive productivity gains for junior and senior devs alike.
This workshop will walk you through the process of building and testing your own unique CRUD application with a rich and modern frontend.
Profits raised through this workshop will go towards funding teacher and technical training for those who would otherwise not be able to afford it.
We'll be using the following tools:
It would be useful if you are comfortable with the following:
Django is brilliant. It's the web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. It's worth knowing about. And, for newer web developers, Django is an amazing teacher.
That said, if you are not into Django then that is fine! The focus of this tutorial is on building the frontend. The vast majority of what we cover in this tutorial can be used as is with other web frameworks. For example FastAPI, expressJS or similar.
90% of the web is CRUD. CRUD stands for Create, Read, Update and Delete. Once you know how to implement simple CRUD apps, you will be able to do quite a lot.
The workshop will guide you through the process of building a specific application. You will be encouraged to choose your own adventure and make use of the skills covered to build your own project.
In previous workshops learners have worked on projects like:
You can do quite a lot with a CRUD app.
We are keeping the number of tickets on sale low so that each course participant can get the attention they need. We believe in the power of engaged teachers.
The workshop is designed to empower learners to move at their own pace. We wont push anyone to keep up when they can't, or make anyone slow down when they are on a roll.
If you struggle with earlier parts of the workshop then you'll be supported. The goal here is not to rush through things and tick boxes. The goal here is to empower learners with real skills.
Different people will find this workshop challenging in different ways. Some will need extra support while setting up their projects, some will be challenges by the database interactions.
We're here to support you with your unique challenges.
Data science projects are fast-paced, iterative, and collaborative, making version control a crucial skill. In this workshop, we’ll equip you with the essential tools and best practices for managing data, code, and experiments in a structured, reproducible way using Git and GitHub.
Duration: 2 Days
Level: Beginner to Intermediate
Data science projects often involve multiple data sources, evolving codebases, and a need for reproducibility and collaboration. Version control is essential for managing these complexities, yet it’s often an overlooked skill among data scientists. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll introduce you to Git and GitHub, helping you effectively manage your code, track changes, and collaborate smoothly on data-driven projects. By the end of the day, you’ll feel confident using version control to organize your projects and work efficiently, whether you’re collaborating with a team or working solo.
This workshop will cover everything a data scientist needs to know about version control, including:
This workshop is designed for data scientists and analysts who are new to version control or want to deepen their skills with Git and GitHub. No prior experience with Git is necessary, but a basic familiarity with the command line will be helpful.
