🚨 Important Announcement 🚨

Going forward all my packages will only "officially" support maintained #Python versions. Meaning since October only 3.14 and now 3.15.

This has no effect on Django version support.

CVEs will be backported to older 🐍 release.

#python #django #opensource

Wonderful proof of what you can achieve in a 3 morning long Open Source sprint in person, with the right people in the room, and enough time to relax. 🚀

Great job @carlton @lilyf @jacobtylerwalls @samueljsb @meshy @caleb and Simon 👏

Two weeks already since the last day of Django on the Med 2026 in Pescara 🏖️

It still feels nice to look back at these little moments from our three days together: Django, conversations, places, food and plenty of time shared around Abruzzo 😊

Here are a few more clips we hadn’t shared yet.

And yes, we still have more memories from Pescara to come!

Dear #LazyWeb: what's the plan for #Django's unique_together? The docs say it "may be deprecated", but I can't find a viable path to UniqueConstraint that avoids needlessly recreating existing database constraints -- and potentially disrupting deployments: https://codeberg.org/allauth/django-allauth/pulls/4793#issuecomment-24908223

Hey @hamatti great news you'll be part of 7th cohort of @djangonaut 🥳

As a navigator I encouraged Djangonauts in my cohort to write about their experience because I think it is extremely interesting to read. 🧐

Since you're a great blogger, I expect to read all your steps in this experience. 🍿

And we finished our second day in Villa Celiera 🌙

At La Locanda del Voltigno we sat down together for dinner, tasted local food and got a proper introduction to arrosticini, including watching how they are traditionally cooked before eating them together.

A very Abruzzo way to end a full day 😊

Then a tour of the winery, local food, wine tasting and a long table together before continuing our trip.

A big thank you to @jetbrains for making this afternoon possible ❤️

Looking at "What do we do about (lack of) memcached support in recent Pythons?" for Django's caching docs.

Memcached is currently the first suggestion, but neither of the supported backends libraries are up to date.

Occurs to me, if I had to reorganise the docs there, the ORM DB cache would be what I'd put first. It's more than enough for many cases, and if it's not, you know. 🤔

A little bit of Django on the Med 2026 from Pescara 🏖️

25 people came from around the world to spend three days working on Django, talking, sharing ideas and enjoying some time together.

In this first video @paulox explain why we brought the event to Pescara, then Simon Charette talks about how useful it is to work together in person.

More people and moments coming soon 😊

#DjangoOnTheMed #Django #Python #DjangoORM #Pescara

@matthiask also this part captures well the @djangomed spirit:

«I can very well imagine going to more conferences and sprints again. The value of meeting in person is unquestionable. It might be hard though to improve on the experience we had here with the location, the nice weather and the social events.»

#DjangoOnTheMed #Django

Hey @matthiask very well done with the @djangomed recap. 👏

I really appreciated reading this part:

«I think this is one of the big advantages of events like this: The same discussion would have taken weeks or months in an issue tracker, if it ever happened, and in person it was a question of sitting together for an hour, hashing it out, and then you potentially have a basic agreement and an idea for which direction to go.»

Hi @ehmatthes during DjangoCon US 2026 I floated an idea with a few people: maybe it’s time for Django to have a core "deploy" command.

Like Django Tasks, Django could provide only the deployment API/interface, leaving actual providers and deployment targets to external packages.

Before adding the proposal in django/new-features, I’d really like your take, since django-simple-deploy has already explored exactly this model.

After checking out, I stopped by the @djangocon sprints for a little while. 💻

It was brief, but very worthwhile: I caught up with @webology and @ericholscher about yesterday's DSF Open Space, talked with @sabderemane about the website group, and said goodbye to Radek after another interview.

I also had time to jot down a few ideas before heading out.

In just over half an hour I’ll be on stage for “The Django UUID Story”. 🦄

If you’re here in Chicago, I’d be very happy to see you at 3:40 PM in the Sauganash Ballroom at voco Chicago Downtown. If you’re following online, I hope you’ll tune in too!

I’ve been looking forward to @wsvincent “Modern Django Deployments in 2026” at @djangocon

We’ve chatted about it over the last few days, and I saw how much work he put into refining the slides and presentation.

Really happy to see it on stage—and to watch people around me nod along as Will goes through the familiar pain points of deploying Django. Clearly, a lot of this resonates. 🙂

We’ve just wrapped up the Django Software Foundation members Open Space at @djangocon

It was great to meet everyone and share updates on the work of the DSF board and Steering Council working groups. Lots of interest in fundraising, the Executive Director search, and Django events around the world.

And we get a final selfie with Jeff, Afi & everyone. 📸

I'm listening to @jacobtylerwalls talk about auto-prefetching and model field fetch modes in Django 6.1.

I met Jacob last year, then again at Django on the Med, and saw an earlier version of this talk at DjangoCon Europe in Athens in April.

It's really interesting to see how both the feature and the talk have evolved in just a few months, and always a pleasure to hear Jacob explain Django's ORM. 😊

DjangoCon US Day 3 starts with the @kmtracey keynote on Django 6.x 💚

Karen has been part of the Django community since 2006, and I've had the pleasure of knowing her for a few years.

After twenty years of Django releases, it's wonderful to see how genuinely excited she still is about this one, and to see Django still evolving enough to make people feel that way.

@sqlliz is on stage with what's new in PostgreSQL 18 & 19. 🐘

Meeting Elizabeth at DjangoCon US and talking about the latest PostgreSQL features, and which ones we'd love to bring into Django, has become a tradition for me.

Yesterday we even exchanged slide feedback: she showed me hers, I showed her some from tomorrow's UUID talk. Maybe that's why I've been mentioned a few times today. 😄

Always a pleasure.

I remember that PR well, and smiled when one of my old review comments appeared in her slides. Since then, I've watched Sarah contribute more and more, especially on accessibility, and become Co-Chair of the Website Working Group.

It's wonderful to see that journey told from the stage. 💚

After the morning break, I'm enjoying @frank and @calvinhp comparing @django and @FastAPI .

It's fun to watch two very experienced consultants and long-time members of the Django community challenge each other in such a friendly way.

I especially like that this feels constructive rather than competitive: not “which one wins?”, but understanding where each approach fits best.

@sarahboyce is giving today's keynote, “Emails from my Grandad”.

“Brave step” to tackle something as delicate as code review. 😄

Joking aside, she's doing a great job talking about how difficult it can be to give and receive feedback, especially in Open Source, where reviews involve not just code but people, trust, and relationships.

Really enjoying this one.

Day 1 of DjangoCon US 2026 is done. 🇺🇸

The talks were great, but a big part of the day for me happened in the hallway track and around the DSF booth: answering questions, chatting with attendees and sponsors, and catching up with people I only get to see in person once or twice a year.

Those conversations are a huge part of why I come to conferences like this. 💚

After spending much of the afternoon on the hallway track, I'm back for @josh talk on how AI coding agents changed the way he writes Django.

I've followed this closely over the past months and reviewed the changes, so it's great to see Dan presenting what the working group and community have achieved.

One slide says it especially well: this was Dan's first contribution to Django: a reminder that contributing to Django doesn't have to mean writing code. 💚

@rixx
Or add a middleware to strip the body from HEAD responses?

#django #gunicorn

@henryk #Django used to strip response bodies to HEAD request until this behaviour was changed in 1.10 -- the release notes do not give a reason:

> The WSGI handler no longer removes content of responses from HEAD requests or responses with a status_code of 100-199, 204, or 304. Most web servers already implement this behavior.

Reading up a bit: Ticket at https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/26052 refers to the mod_wsgi author saying the handling belongs to wsgi, not to the app: https://grahamdumpleton.me/posts/2009/10/wsgi-issues-with-http-head-requests/

In case anybody else runs the niche #django + #gunicorn combination: In your Django settings, set LOGGING["loggers"]["gunicorn.http.wsgi"] to {"handlers": ["null"], "propagate": False}

Or write a custom logging filter, I am not your boss, but I checked and these are currently the only warnings from gunicorn.http.wsgi.

https://github.com/pretalx/pretalx/commit/6fe658af5796aa9a79a502626cf99f0e1f1485e9

Gunicorn now categorises "Framework returns content on HEAD requests" as a bug, and warns about it for every request.

Django's position is "Web servers should automatically strip the content of responses to HEAD requests while leaving the headers unchanged".

So, that's fun! 🫠
(Screenshot shows ASGI commit, but it was added to WSGI too.)

#django #python #gunicorn

Alt...

Django docs screenshot, highlight reads "Web servers should automatically strip the content of responses to HEAD requests while leaving the headers unchanged"

Alt...

gunicorn commit, message: fix: warn once when ASGI app emits a body for a no-body response A framework bug — say, returning bytes from a HEAD or 204 handler — is now logged at WARNING level the first time it happens for a request so the misbehavior is visible without spamming on multi-chunk streams.

q is for Q

Django's Q objects make more complex queries easier to read and they can improve reusability and documentation of your code by giving individual queries and query parts names.

In summer, I often come across old movies on TV, and tonight I caught part of Django, the original 1966 film directed by Sergio Corbucci, one of the early spaghetti westerns.

The film was the first of a long series of imitations and remakes featuring the character of Django.

The title comes from jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, whom Corbucci was a fan of.

The film had a huge influence on the genre, though I've other favourites…

Me after laboriously backporting #Python 3.15 fixes to #Django 6.0.x in #Gentoo: "oh, nice, the patchset applies cleanly to 5.2.x as well."

And today, I have to laboriously backport another patch to 6.0.x, and it turns out the backport doesn't apply cleanly to 5.2.x, so I have to laboriously backport it there as well.

I honestly *hate* Django Python version support policy. Shifting all the burden downstream.

Hey @natera thanks for summarize so clearly your experience.👏

It's a great and real advertising for using the right tool for the right job. 😊

#Django

Usually a quick chore, but with the #ruff feature update, an unexpected ton of work…

#django #python #precommit

The new django-bolt==0.10.0a1 is the fastest python framework. I can confidently say it now because before it was near litestar level. 6x performance of FastAPI.
/db clearly wins. Pagination wins after `sync_to_thread`. So only db is close. Frameowrk level overhead bolt is way ahead.
#python #django #opensource
Code used https://github.com/huynguyengl99/python-api-frameworks-benchmark
On repo they still use 0.4.7 version.

Looking at the still very-alive django-evolution package is like gazing into a parallel universe.

Hey @b0rk it's very interesting to read your journey with Django 😊

One feedback about performance: based on my experience, the first thing that decreases performance is poor queries or missing table indexes, it's very effective to check queries and optimize them before checking Python code, template engine or cache. ⚡

La configuration d'une application Django se fait habituellement via un script Python dont les résultats dépendent de l'environnement d'exécution (variables d'environnement). Ce projet de @adamghill permet de déporter tout ou partie de la configuration dans des fichiers TOML qu'on peut associer à des environnements différents : https://github.com/adamghill/dj-toml-settings

My talk from @posetteconf : An Event for Postgres 2026 is now available on YouTube 🎥🐘

If you missed it live, you can now watch “PostgreSQL Generated Columns by Example” online.

I’ve also collected links and additional information on my blog, and I plan to publish the slides there next week ✨

Thanks to the support of six of our sponsors, the Django Software Foundation has secured initial funding to support an Executive Director.

This is the very beginning, and we have a lot of planning and discussions to go, but this is a big step towards hiring an Executive Director.

Le petit plus #fediverse :

• On m'a demandé de prévenir : si vous n'avez pas d'expérience/compétences #django/#python, vous serez surement en bas de la pile.
• C'est une #scop, ça a ses avantages et ses inconvénients, pensez-y bien fort avant de postuler/accepter
• Si vous êtes pris, vous ne pourrez plus dire du mal de vos collègues sur le #fediverse car on y est tous (non mais une bonne partie, enfin surtout moi et d'autres)... Ca peut jouer dans la balance, mais bon, vous aurez de nouveau followers et des supers* collègues !

**: non, ce n'est pas vrai, mais si je ne le dis pas, ils vont me tomber dessus :-p
