As a Django developer, there are things you need to worry about. Keeping up to date with Django trends and best practices is one thing, but what about all the other parts of technology that are incessantly advertised towards you? What should you have to worry about?
This keynote will explore some recent popular trends in open source software and development, and assess their relevance to a Django developer. There may be some things that you may want to try out, but there's a difference between learning more for expanding your knowledge, and things that you must do.
While trends are always changing, this keynote will focus on three main pillars: architecture, software, and community.
You will come away with a shortlist of things that will be of relevance to you in 2022, and as future trends appear, give you tools to help you identify what you should have to worry about.
