Just recovered from the intensively fun #EuroPython last week, and every time it gave me warmth from the #Python #community and kept me motivated to contribute. Here is a short recap from my perspective: https://cheuk.dev/posts/2025-07-24-europython25-recap/

Having an itch to scratch, @beeware sprint at #EuroPython and being in the middle of the AI turmoil? Here's an app I created in two days without knowing much about mobile apps: https://karolinasurma.eu/fluxus-scratching-my-itch.html

I plan to publish the code after polishing maneuvers.
TL;DR: For prototyping features LLM did surprisingly well. Complex tasks went poorly. I've got the app on my phone. I'd like to see more Python on mobile! I'm impressed.

Pretty sure #EuroPython 2025 was my top 1 fav conference ever. Just the perfect mixture of catching up with people I know, meeting people I don’t know, learning new things. Time well spent chatting w/ Python veterans and also first-timers

Volunteering there was ACE, and for #Django people, I’m thankful we got to have a booth, and birthday cake for our project

THANK YOU to everyone who was part of this - attendees, organizers, sponsors, everyone

I wrote up a #europython recap from last week in Prague.

Lots of discussions around AI, modern Python usage, and #PyCharm.

Also, did you know there are 20 former ice vaults along the main river in town now converted into bars and cafes? Read on to learn more .

 EuroPython has just ended.
One issue came up again and again during community organisers open space: it’s harder to find sponsors.

Now that AI is taking the spotlight, I’m asking: Who is being left behind?

That’s what this blog post is about:

Thanks to everyone for taking part in the #CPython sprint at #EuroPython2025!

Across all CPython repos this weekend:

* 122 PRs created (69 the previous weekend)
* 79 PRs merged (65)
* countless invaluable in-person discussions (a few?)

After #EuroPython is before #WHY2025 and I just secured my DECT number the other day. Who of you will I be able to meet there? :)

A successful #EuroPython sprint - 25 challenge coins awarded, 30 issues resolved (with a couple more in the review queue still to come), and 3 major investigations completed - including one that has the potential to resolve a long standing Briefcase issue. A huge Thank You to the EuroPython 2025 organizers, and to everyone who came along to the BeeWare sprints.

It turns out that @timothy is a huge fan of Murderbot We watched the first four episodes before I had to leave for #EuroPython and now that I'm back he has insisted that we finish the show this weekend.

I don’t think PyCon FR was mentioned at #EuroPython? It’s in 3 months, it’s free , it’s in Lyon (great food), very reachable by train or bike, or plane. Did I mention it’s free? https://www.pycon.fr/2025/en/ Run by @AFPy

OH AND… the CFP closes this evening! It’s bilingual English - French

Home from EuroPython in prague. Amazing people, and so fantastic to see so so many friends again, as well as making new ones.

Given me the motivation to continue the great work I'm doing, and take on some new challenges.

Most important thing I've learned you ask? Never go so long as I have again (1.5 years) without a python conference.

Today wraps up #EuroPython2025 for me. I wanted to visit the first day of the sprints, but did the same mistake as last year by having way too tight of a schedule. At least I'm in not stuck in Leipzig at 1 AM

This year was a blast! I don't know if it was objectively better, but it was better for me personally. I could overcome shyness way better than last time and made more great acquaintances It makes having to leave now even sadder, but I'm looking forward to next year's #EuroPython (and maybe some other conferences in the meantime, who knows )

This afternoon at EuroPython we saw a special 20 minute excerpt from the long anticipated “Python: The Documentary” by CultRepo.

After that we had a keynote Q&A panel with Brett Cannon, Armin Ronacher and Paul Everitt

Both things have been a great moment of the conference.

And this is a wrap for #EuroPython for travel donkey @timothy and me. It was amazing to meet so many old and new friends, and I'm really sorry I couldn't say good bye to all of you. Despite currently running on fumes I'm really looking forward to whatever will be my next Python conference

At #EuroPython2025, a seat has been reserved for the late Michael Foord.

To help remember his wisdom, I've made @voidbot to share his best practices for software development and testing. Follow and learn!

This morning we celebrated Django's 20th birthday at EuroPython 2025.

We had a birthday cake and took some photos to immortalize the event.

At #EuroPython lots of people are asking how many projects are built with @django. The answer is about 500k to 1M. And yet we only raise $250k per year to support the project, yep, sustainability in open source is hard

Last night was the social event at EuroPython 2025. For me, it started a little early with a delicious pizza with Antonio in the center of Prague, and then continued on Střelecký Island with tons of people, despite the rain. Thanks to the organizers for creating these moments of networking.
