7:15 - 7:45pm: “Hands-on with the uv package manager” by David Birks, E-gineering consultant
uv is a new package manager for Python that focuses on speed and streamlining the development workflow. In this talk, we'll cover things such as: the main features and a brief history of uv, what the migration path looks like from other package managers like pip or poetry, and how useful scripts with inline dependencies can be.
7:45 - 8:15pm: “Aider for Fast, AI-Powered Coding” by Calvin Hendryx-Parker, Six Feet Up CTO
Skip the setup, get straight to coding! Watch Calvin Hendryx-Parker spin up a fully configured Django project in seconds with Scaf™, a project bootstrap tool, then supercharge development with Aider, an AI-powered coding assistant. See how Aider writes models, refactors code, and speeds up development — all in real time. If you’re ready to code smarter, not harder, don’t miss this live AI-powered demo!
