Updates to Django
During summer holidays we still had 4 pull requests merged into Django by 2 different contributors - including 1 first time contributor! Congratulations to jualvarez for having their first commit merged into Django - welcome on board!
This week, we have some great opportunities for you to give back to Django!
Are you a Windows user and have some time to help investigate a ticket? We need a little help investigating runserver: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/34787
Or perhaps you speak multiple languages and can help to translate djangogirls.org? You can contribute via this link: https://poeditor.com/join/project/n5I3liMVyj
There's a lot of exciting work going on in the community currently! Giving back to Django has been truly an enriching experience for me and I hope you have the opportunity to raise your hand and make great new friends across the framework. 💚
