Django 6.0beta1 is out! 🎉

It brings new built-in features like CSP support, background tasks, and partial templates, all ready to use without extra packages. 🧩

It’s not ready for production yet, but now is a good time to test it, report bugs, and get your projects ready for the final release. 🚀

📣 An Introduction of sorts
📄 My personal Django journey
🔗 https://softwarecrafts.co.uk/100-words/day-291
#100_words,#django,#career,#community

The amount of my own code I am going to throw away moving to #django generic views is ridiculous. As is the amount of time I could have saved had I #RTFM 'ed a little harder. #python

Could any web devs here who are using #django point me in the right direction on this?

I have a multi-tenant blog app where the templates for a given blog are found in subdirectories of `<app>/templates`. For non-class-based-views, I can pull the tenant from the request and use that to build the template path for `render()`.

I'm now trying to add some generic class-based-views, and the template loading insists on a template resolution scheme that is independent of a request object, so I am struggling to figure out how to isolate templates by tenant.

Any thoughts or tips would be very appreciated.

🚢 Just released Django Keel – a production-ready Django starter.

For 10+ years I maintained a popular Django cookiecutter template used across client projects and FOSS. Django Keel is all those lessons distilled into something cleaner and more modern.

Tired of spending 2 days on boilerplate every time? Me too.

Not a toy. Not a tutorial. Just the boring defaults that actually work in production.

This week has added controls for controlling related object fetching and now DB level cascades to the ORM. At this rate I’m going to be skipping Django 6.0 and running 6.1 off of main instead. Django is on fire 🔥 #django

Django 6.1 will support database-level delete options for related fields 🚀 The database variants are much more efficient because they avoid fetching related objects ⚡ This is a great win for Django on the Med 🏖️ Let's dance 💃🕺

Wanted to check something before bed. Walk through a couple code samples, tweak them a bit.

Yep, nanodjango is pretty cool. Define an entire #Django project in a single file, and blow it up to a full normal project layout as needed. Kinda like the #Mojolicious approach where you start with a code sketch in Mojolicious::Lite.

Except it's Django, so your one-file project can include models and admin screens, no problem.

Definitely need to play with this more.

A few weeks ago, Kraken Tech released Django Subatomic. This is a set of wrappers around Django's `atomic`, providing a stricter, more intentional API for managing database transactions in Django projects. I think this is a great idea and would encourage you to try it!

- Allow decorators to be called without decorators

Non-user facing changes:
- Convert from poetry to uv
- Require Python 3.10+

I wanted to mess around with a simple #django project, so I went looking for a lightweight CSS library that could give me a starting page layout with a sidebar and nav bar at the top, and some basic components. I don’t want to mess with CSS, I just want to mess with Django.

I tried Bulma and Tailwind but they both expected me to create my own page layout. Bah, I’m too lazy for that! I want to spend my time on the things I’m interested in, not the planning around it.

At #DjangoCon US, I shared my own personal QR Code Generator app, never expecting anyone to try to create an account there.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I don't actually want to collect your personal information 😅 You can generate QR code using my site without creating an account!

Anyway, I needed to figure out how to disable account creation on my site using django-allauth. If you have a similar problem, check my blog on how to do it.

@tintvrtkovic tl;dr I think we already have the mechanisms to allow faster experimentation in Django — the ecosystem — but we’ve historically had a oath of silence about it, that we need to get over.

My ideal would be a small, more or less stable core, plus an everything goes Wild West frontier 🤠 #django

Hey #django people: I'm giving the long-nearly-dead Form.Media another go, and am wondering what people are doing for compression/minification.

I normally use django-compressor with offline compression in my projects, but that's no good with a dynamic collection of assets.

I really do like the concept of only including the JS and CSS snippets that I need for my currently rendered forms, though. What do?

Next week is pretty busy in Django-land: There’s Django on the Med 🏖️, a Wagtail Space, and Django (birth)Day Copenhagen 🦄 — It’s all go 🏎️ #Django

💫 Meet our stellar teams from Session 5! 💫

The mission has started for 20 Djangonauts who will contribute to the #Django ecosystem with the support of Navigators and Captains.

📚 Read the blog post about our 6 teams:

I'm really hoping this effort of @adamghill's to advance the Django homepage gains momentum. It's super.

We've been trying to do *something* since the pandemic hit in 2020, and we still haven't made it yet.

We will. 👊 #Django

Following DjangoCon US, people are actively working on two new Django-simple-deploy plugins: one for Render, and one for Python Anywhere. I'm really excited about both of these! (And there are two more that may be progressing as well.)

I've been wondering if django-simple-deploy could define a number of common use cases, and then configure initial deployments on each platform that target that use case.

#Python #Django

In a couple talks now, I've claimed that using django-simple-deploy should be a good way for experienced developers to try out a new hosting platform.

Before this morning, I had never actually used Render. I started reading the docs in order to help a new plugin author, but I quickly stopped and just tried their plugin.

It worked, and it was *so much easier* to run `git diff` and see what changes the plugin made to my sample project.

Obscure #Django ORM tip: if your query has a db.models.Count annotation, and uses `values` — an `order_by` with fields not in the `values` call can affect the grouping of your rows and mess up your counts.

When I hit this, the visible problem was that every count was (incorrectly) 1.

The QS was arriving from the caller already ordered, so the fix was adding an empty `order_by()` to it to reset the ordering before doing the annoation..

#TIL!

Why, in 2025, do we still need a 3rd party app to write a REST API with Django?

his is a question the predident of the DSF was asked at FOSDEM after his talk.

Let's try (very hard) to **NOT** answer it because... Do we **really** need a 3rd party app to write an API with Django?

Calling all djangonauts in Colombia! 🇨🇴 A special birthday meetup is happening in Medellín on Tuesday Sept 30, organized by the local Python group:

https://birthday20.djangoproject.com/events/medellin/

#Django #DjangoBirthday

This week in Accra - our board member @afimaame is keynoting at PyCon Ghana ⭐️🇬🇭 Beyond code: shaping culture, building careers, and growing communities - from her experience with @blackpythondevs, @djangonaut, and #Django 🌈

Does anybody have a solution or link to something I might find useful for "Django migrations at scale".

The issue we've got is from multiple people migrating a project. Then branches getting merged to a pre-prod env for client sign-off/testing.

At that point you end up with the database in a messy state due to all the migration dependencies not matching up if things aren't merged quickly.

I'm back to working on the dsd-vps plugin, and the dream of a completely platform-agnostic VPS plugin for django-simple-deploy is not quite a reality.

As soon as you want to create resources on the user's behalf, you need to know what platform they're targeting. I found this when building in support for ssh-key based automated workflows.

I still think one plugin can support multiple platforms, but there will be platform-specific blocks in the plugin.

Well, I was going to update asgiref this afternoon but I got too excited by @farhanaliraza making #Django go fast instead. 🏎️

✍️ New post introducing django-watchfiles, a package to make Django’s runserver autoreloading more efficient.

https://adamj.eu/tech/2025/09/22/introducing-django-watchfiles/

#Django #Python

@farhanaliraza This kind of thing is exactly where the gains are to be had. Not necessarily Rust-based, but more, what happens if we try to go fast with Django?

Good moves. Excited to see how you get on! 🥳 #Django

Dear #Django fellows, I'm a bit buzzed by the behavior of widgets.DateInput. It is document to compute the <input>'s value attribute according to localization even though HTML spec specifies that the value is always of the form yyyy-mm-dd. This makes the value to never be displayed by the browser. This feels like a bug but the presence of DATE_INPUT_FORMATS indicates this is intentionnal.

so my question is: why?

Plugins are at the heart of django-simple-deploy. The plugin generator is critical to the project, because it lets plugin authors focus on their platform and deployment approach, rather than focusing on django-simple-deploy internals.

Generated plugins now include all the infrastructure needed to quickly add custom CLI args, such as `--db`, `--num-cpus`, or anything else that would help your users make a robust deployment.

#Python #Django

https://github.com/django-simple-deploy/dsd-plugin-generator

Caveat: when it comes to design, everyone is a critic. And don't read too much into any of this -- it’s a first draft after a few hours of throwing together HTML. 😅

With that said, if anyone is interested, DM me your GitHub username and I can add you to a private repo where I'm messing with a redesign of the #Django homepage.

Currently just regular HTML + TailwindCSS + a tiny bit of vanilla JavaScript.

I must have looked at this post about once a quarter for the last 5 years. Recommended.

The 1.2.1 release of django-simple-deploy allows plugins to extend the core CLI.

For example, the dsd-flyio plugin now supports a `--vm-size` option.

This is what was needed to make plugins much more powerful than simply "give me the smallest possible working deployment".

We have a new blog post on Debusine to share with you!

It's our first design story for the UI, covering our unique approach towards JavaScript. It goes into detail on how to avoid having Debian infrastructure depend on it, how to integrate interactive widgets with Django, and how to keep complexities down to make Debusine code easier to write and to maintain.

Friday afternoon #Django musings/question, when processing webhooks, what do folks use to handle validation/business logic operations.

Reading @wsvincent's post on his recent @djangocon talk. There's masses of good in there, including a clean chat demo on exactly how you wire up your LLM to your UI with Django. 🎩

The discussion before the technical bit has (IMO) a golden lesson for how we should be talking about these problems. Captured in the slide here, "Web ≠ API Endpoints" — Django's strength is that you get the whole toolkit. We should be doubling down on that.

If you were on the fence, three of live talks (or you can stream in before or after the conference) is $99 aka $33 a day.

This also gives you access to the hackathon that will be running next week, and we have two days of virtual sprints that anyone may join.

#DjangoCon #DjangoConUS #Django #Python

👋 Friends, #DjangoCon US is in Chicago next week. With the news cycle, we’re not sure what to expect.

🎟️ Can’t be in Chicago? Grab a 3-day online ticket for $99 (or $199 if your employer covers it). Without your support, our online streaming would not be sustainable.

➡️ If you’re protesting US travel, we see you and would be grateful for your support so we can keep offering online events.

I'm just about to go on holiday, but before I do, here's what I'm looking forward to in Django 6.0

django-simple-deploy now supports deploying Wagtail projects on Heroku:

$ pip install django-simple-deploy[heroku] # Add `django_simple_deploy` to INSTALLED_APPS in settings/base.py. $ python manage.py deploy --automate-all

🎊 Thanks to @nanorepublica efforts, https://djangotv.com is now running on django-prodserver

I'm happy to see django-prodserver come to life after several conversations we had on Mastodon (the non-fart smelling parts) about how to make Django's deployment story better.

Major kudos to Andy for taking this on and shipping a working solution that feels it should live inside of Django.

Shoutout to @adamghill for dj-toml-settings https://github.com/adamghill/dj-toml-settings and dj-raincheck https://github.com/adamghill/dj-raincheck and to @ehmatthes for django-simple-deploy https://github.com/django-simple-deploy/django-simple-deploy

I think the community is finally moving Django and Python deployment forward. 2026 might be the year it turns the corner.

Django and Python folks, do you have specific places where you've looked for jobs?

I'm looking for the optimal place to post an ad for a Django developer job and so any suggestions would be helpful.

My journey with Casefleet is coming to the end. It was a great pleasure working with such a wonderful team ❤️. I wish you all the best 🎁.

It's time to move forward too 🧭. I'm a Django 💚 and Python 🐍 contributor, and a former Django release manager who spent 5 years as a Django Fellow, maintaining Django itself.

How do you feel about the unofficial #Django pony mascot?

Ce que j'aime bien avec #django (cadriciel de dév web en #python), c'est qu'il y a souvent l'occasion de nommer des trucs en commençant par DJ

We added a “What are we going to achieve?” and “What does success look like?” to the Django on the Med 🏖️ website. Two goals: get you thinking, and help you make the case to your boss, for attendance or sponsoring. Check it out! 🦄

Woohoo 🥳 “Ready for checkin” template-partials is going to be in Django 6.0. 💃 Awesome work @farhanaliraza 👊 and @nessita guiding it across the line 🙌

If you need to convince someone about the importance of "Locality of Behavior" (LoB) in #Django, show them a large project that attempted to do "don't repeat yourself" (DRY) on a bunch of Django Rest Framework serializers 🍝

It's a pattern I've seen repeated with both models, forms and class-based views. Class-inheritance invites DRY'ing of loosely related objects that often turn out to diverge once the project has evolved.

Anyways good luck out there with the DRY'ing, LoB'ing and YAGNI'ing 🤹‍♂️

Docs: Real-time collaborative note-taking system, with off-line mode.

Built on top of #Django #NextJS #Yjs (CRDTs) #MinIO #BlockNoteJS. Easy to self-host, MIT license. Joint effort of the French and German governments.
