My Python Project Layout for Production Apps in 2025 🐍 YouTube video by Hynek Schlawack

Ever since I started talking about uv, ppl kept asking me how I ship my #Python prod apps in practice nowadays.

I turned out to be a much bigger topic than I though, so let's start with with the app setup. From nothing to a best-practice working local project:

Loving these ideas 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I esp like this client / connect one. Seems like an unassuming trap that I’m sure many have fallen into *cough* 👀🫣

The Design of Everyday APIs What makes a good API for a library? Or more importantly, what makes it bad? Implementing an API is an art. It’s the connection between the user and the library itself. How can we optimize that connection to make the experience more pleasing? What makes a user reach for one library over another? What goes into an ergonomic API? This talk will first discuss what makes an API good: documentation, simplicity, consistency, completeness, and flexibility.

hey new friends, help a girl out - what would y'all want to see in a part 2 of the "Design of Everyday APIs" talk? anything more to dig in on, or missed topics, or inspired ideas? https://www.roguelynn.com/talks/everyday-apis/

req for suggestions to my limited following 😅 anyone know of any tools/services for capturing user feedback on CLI tools e.g. try out this new feature: "do the prompts make sense? do the commands make sense for the task(s) we're asking you to do?"
