In this episode, I did another Exercism problem in Python which focused on working with dictionaries. Once the exercise was complete, we worked on the homeschool app and created a custom 404 page so that Django would render something beyond a plain page.

If you’re familiar with Python, you’ve most certainly heard of Django, but may not know what it is used for and why people like it so much. We will first run through a ‘backend development 101’ crash-course, then talk about Django’s take on backend development and what Django REST Framework provides on top of it. Finally we will add a feature to an example Django app and do some live coding.

In this episode, I updated and supercharged my editor by switching to Neovim. After that, we did an Exercism excercise that looked at Python tuples. Then I started on a new issues for my SaaS, but pivoted to adding django-stubs to improve the type hinting in the code.
