Anyone using MCP to connect Cursor to Django Backend?
I would love to have Cursor just aware of all models as well as the current runserver output so it can see when a change is throwing an error.

Type hinting g and session is there to make life easier.
Many of you may already know this. But discovering it makes my life easier. Accessing value in g is troublesome. On the other hand IDE can not help on the object returned by g. So i made a G_mngr which solve this problem.
from flask import g
from typing import TYPE_CHECKING, Optional
if TYPE_CHECKING:
from yourpkg.database.user_model import User
class G_mngr():
@property
def user(self)->Optional['User']:
return g.get('user',None)
@user.setter
def user(self, value):
g.user = value
G=G_mngr()
G in other module, you can now easily use G.user and IDE can help you with all the suggestion about user and its attributes. Same goes to session.
Need a little guidance
Hey, I’m a beginner Django programmer. I’ve been working with Django for the past 3 months and have built a few projects like a task manager, PDF generator, email sender, etc. I’m currently stuck on the Django REST framework — not understanding much of it. I’m more of a hands-on/project-based learner; watching lectures doesn’t really work for me. I’m hoping a real Django developer could guide me a bit — not looking for an internship, certification, or anything formal, just some guidance. I’d be really greatful.

SaaS opportunity
I am a 17 year old full time Django developer at a digital company based in the Uk, and a while ago me and my friend decided to put our skills to use by starting a SaaS side project built with Django. We have got a MVP pretty much developed
I am looking for a Django developer(s) who would be interested in joining us.
We are applying for funding which would massively help and therefore we would like another developer to accelerate development and hopefully it can turn into something more full time in the future if all goes well.
I know it’s not the most lucrative opportunity but if you like to learn and develop Django, and are enthusiastic about development you might enjoy it.
Please DM or comment if you are interested

Best logging strategy
Currently, I’m logging the entire request and response, including the body. However, this is consuming too much storage and network bandwidth.

NameError Issue with Flask
I'm trying to make a battle simulator with flask, and I've encountered a really weird issue. The initial index.html renders fine, but when I click on a button that links to another page (that has proper html), i get this NameError: logging is not defined.
My program doesn't use logging, has never used logging, and it doesn't get resolved even after I imported it. My program worked fine, but after I tried downloading an old logging module that subsequently failed (in Thonny if that's important) I've been unable to fix this issue. I've cleared my pycache, I've checked if anything was actually/partially installed. I even tried duplicating everything to a new directory and the issue persisted.
When I replaced my code with a similar project I found online, it worked completely fine, so my code is the issue (same modules imported, same dependencies, etc). However, as I've said, my code worked well before and didn't directly use anything from logging

Building an ERP: ready-made platforms vs custom development
I’m a software engineer, and a client has asked me to deliver a fast B2B solution. I’d never heard of Odoo before and I’m curious whether it could really save me time on the infrastructure side. I’m looking for a platform I can customize with my own code and integrations, and so far I’ve shortlisted ERPNext, Odoo, and Axelor as ready-made options.
Long story short, I’m building a portal where electronics suppliers can log in and upload products to the company for which I’m developing the ERP; that company will then resell those items to smaller retailers at a steep discount. Major chains such as Micro Center, Electronic Express, and Abt Electronics will need access as well. The company essentially acts as an intermediary, handling all purchase requests, shipment tracking, and invoicing.
My question: Is it really better to leverage one of these ready-made frameworks, or would building the system from scratch give me a more solid and scalable solution?

Premier: Instantly Turn Your ASGI App into an API Gateway
Hey everyone! I've been working on a project called Premier that I think might be useful for Python developers who need API gateway functionality without the complexity of enterprise solutions.
## What My Project Does
Premier is a versatile resilience framework that adds retry, cache, throttle logic to your python app.
It operates in three main ways:
1. Lightweight Standalone API Gateway - Run as a dedicated gateway service
2. ASGI App/Middleware - Wrap existing ASGI applications without code changes
3. Function Resilience Toolbox - Flexible yet powerful decorators for cache, retry, timeout, and throttle logic
The core idea is simple: add enterprise-grade features like caching, rate limiting, retry logic, timeouts, and performance monitoring to your existing Python web apps with minimal effort.
### Key Features
- Response Caching - Smart caching with TTL and custom cache keys
- Rate Limiting - Multiple algorithms (fixed/sliding window, token/leaky bucket) that work with distributed applications
- Retry Logic - Configurable retry strategies with exponential backoff
- Request Timeouts - Per-path timeout protection
- Path-Based Policies - Different features per route with regex matching
- YAML Configuration - Declarative configuration with namespace support
### Why Premier
Premier lets you instantly add API gateway features to your existing ASGI applications without introducing heavy, complex tech stacks like Kong or

Question about reusing/sharing apps
Hello everyone,
I'm currently starting a new project and have a question about sharing apps between separate projects.
I'm building something that will need two different servers that have different purposes and deployments, but still will need to interact largely with the same data, so to avoid repeating myself and also inevitably making mistakes in maintaining the same thing twice, I wanted to have all those things in apps that are shared between those two projects.
As they are generally closely tied together, I want to develop this in a monorepo type structure for now. My structure right now looks something like this:
backend
- server1
- server2
- sharedapp1
- sharedapp2
- ...
Each of the servers has its own venv managed by uv.
Now, I am unsure on how the proper way is to import an app here. I found two ways that generally work:
1: Package them as a pip package with a setup.py and install them to the individual servers

The GIL is actually going away — Have you tried a no-GIL Python?
I know this topic is too old and was discussed for years. But now it looks like things are really changing, thanks to the PEP 703. Python 3.13 has an experimental no-GIL build.
As a Python enthusiast, I digged into this topic this weekend (though no-GIL Python is not ready for production) and wrote a summary of how Python struggled with GIL from the past, current to the future:

And I also setup the no-GIL Python on my Mac to test multithreading programs, it really worked.

I'm a front-end developer (HTML/CSS), and for a client, I need to build a GUI using Python.
Hi everyone!
I'm a front-end developer (HTML/CSS), and for a client, I need to build a GUI using Python.
I've looked into a few options, and PyWebView caught my eye because it would let me stay within my comfort zone (HTML/CSS/JS) and avoid diving deep into a full Python GUI framework like PySide or Tkinter.
The application will be compiled (probably with PyInstaller or similar) and will run locally on the client's computer, with no connection to any external server.
My main concern is about PyWebView’s security in this context:
Are there any risks with using this kind of tech locally (e.g., unwanted code execution, insecure file access, etc.)?
Is PyWebView a reasonable and safe choice for an app that will be distributed to end users?
I'd really appreciate any feedback or best practices from those who've worked with this stack!

🏠 I built a Django Real Estate website years ago with just basic features. Look what it became! [SHOWCASE]
Hey r/Django! 👋
I wanted to share something I'm pretty excited about. A few years back, I started working on a simple real estate website using Django. Back then, it was just basic stuff - you know, show some properties, maybe a contact form, nothing fancy.But over time, I kept adding more features whenever I learned something new or had a cool idea. Now it's turned into this pretty comprehensive real estate platform!
What started as:
* Basic property listings
* Simple contact forms
* User registration/login

Has grown into:
* Advanced search with fancy tabs (Projects, For Rent, For Sale)
* User wishlist system (you can save properties!)
* Real estate project management (for new developments)
* Admin dashboard for managing everything
* Property inquiry system
* User profiles and dashboards
* Photo galleries with lightbox
* Responsive design that works on mobile
* Tech stack:
* Django 5.2.3
* Bootstrap for UI
* JavaScript for interactive stuff
* SQLite (but can use PostgreSQL)
Cool features I'm proud of:
* The search interface looks modern with glass effects
* Progress bars showing project completion status
* AJAX wishlist functionality
* Comprehensive admin panel
* Generated sample data with Faker for testing

Learning Backend for the first time with Flask but hate styling the frontend
Hey is it okay to use AI for developing the frontend for my flask app projects? I hate CSS and know only Python and not JS. I tried but I just hate to take css up from a blank page. I hate styling even with Bootstrap. It is not that I don't want my projects or website to look good, the thing is only that I don't like writing or learning the code to design pages.
So if I am making those projects for my portfolio as a backend developer, is it okay to use AI for the frontend?

Why is Django not the most popular framework?
Python is the most popular programming language with AI/ML becoming centerstage. Then why is Django not the most popular web framework? It seems natural that when models are hosted via API and need a web interface for users, then the Python developers who built the model would opt for Django since it is also in Python.
But I don't see as active an involvement on YouTube for Django compared to Next.js, React, and other Frontend frameworks. Am I misinterpreting it or missing something in my understanding?
I also realised that it's not straightforward to integrate frontend technologies such as Tailwind CSS as it is for other frontend frameworks.
Django has strong security and a fully developed Admin interface which saves lot of development time but still I see that it's not as popular as other frameworks such as Laravel or Next.js.
I am at a point where I need to pick a framework as a goto framework for all my future web development and I am at the moment torn between options and indecisiveness.
I foresee having AI components in my apps and needing to interact with trained models at some point. And I am reluctant if I pick Django,

Local LLM Memorization – A fully local memory system for long-term recall and visualization
Hey r/Python!
I've been working on my first project called LLM Memorization — a fully local memory system for your LLMs, designed to work with tools like LM Studio, Ollama, or Transformer Lab.
The idea is simple: If you're running a local LLM, why not give it a memory?
# What My Project Does
Logs all your LLM chats into a local SQLite database
Extracts key information from each exchange (questions, answers, keywords, timestamps, models…)
Syncs automatically with LM Studio (or other local UIs with minor tweaks)
Removes duplicates and performs idea extraction to keep the database clean and useful
Retrieves similar past conversations when you ask a new question
Summarizes the relevant memory using a local T5-style model and injects it into your prompt
Visualizes the input question, the enhanced prompt, and the memory base
Runs as a lightweight Python CLI, designed for fast local use and easy customization
# Why does this matter?
Most local LLM setups forget everything between sessions.
That’s fine for quick Q&A — but what if you’re working on a long-term project, or want your model to remember what matters?
With LLM Memorization, your memory stays on your machine.
No cloud. No API calls. No privacy concerns. Just a growing personal knowledge

P 3Blue1Brown Follow-up: From Hypothetical Examples to LLM Circuit Visualization
About a year ago, I watched this 3Blue1Brown LLM tutorial on how a model’s self-attention mechanism is used to predict the next token in a sequence, and I was surprised by how little we know about what actually happens when processing the sentence "A fluffy blue creature roamed the verdant forest."
A year later, the field of mechanistic interpretability has seen significant advancements, and we're now able to "decompose" models into interpretable circuits that help explain how LLMs produce predictions. Using the second iteration of an LLM "debugger" I've been working on, I compare the hypothetical representations used in the tutorial to the actual representations I see when extracting a circuit that describes the processing of this specific sentence. If you're into model interpretability, please take a look! https://peterlai.github.io/gpt-circuits/
