Latest episode: #535 PyView: Real-time Python Web Apps

Building on the web is like working with the perfect clay. It’s malleable and can become almost anything. But too often, frameworks try to hide the web’s best parts away from us. Today, we’re looking at PyView, a project that brings the real-time power of Phoenix LiveView directly into the Python world. I'm joined by Larry Ogrodnek to dive into PyView.

His answer, static sites, client-side search, and sneaky Python. Let’s dive in.

Absolutely my favorite
Absolutely my favorite. He is such a knowledgeable developer, presenter, interviewer, and he is also a great teacher. He makes his presentations very accessible and his interviews never feel like an interview. I started my Python and data sciencece journey through this podcast. I look forward to his podcast every week now. All the best to you Michael.
