What goes into making video courses at Real Python? How should you build an installable Django application? Christopher Trudeau is back on the show this week, bringing another batch of PyCoder’s Weekly articles and projects.

This week, the Real Python Podcast is experiencing several firsts. We recorded a show in front of a live audience for the very first time, and it happened in Dublin, Ireland—a place neither of us had visited before. I also got to meet Christopher Trudeau in person for the first time.

We’re sharing that live recording from the conference in this episode. We discuss how we create video courses at Real Python, and Christopher talks about his tutorial on how to write an installable Django application.

We also share a few summaries of the talks from the conference and projects from the Django community, including a news roundup, how decisions are made inside the Django Foundation, ways you can help with reviews, using the Django ORM with Marimo notebooks, maintaining a data-oriented project, how to get foreign keys horribly wrong, a project for simple deployment, and a project for adding extra buttons inside the Django Admin.

We would like to thank the audience members from Ireland who heard about DjangoCon by listening to the podcast. Thank you for attending the conference and for taking the time to say hello. We also appreciate those who asked us insightful questions at the end of the show.

We enjoyed exploring Dublin and recording the show in front of such a welcoming audience. We learned a ton from all the great talks given at the conference and made some new connections for future interviews.
