Princeton Python User Group

Happy [if smoky] June!  Our next meeting is this Monday!

As usual we will start with a beginner-friendly segment, but this time starting a new opener series: tutorial round-up!  Our opener will remain basic, but will focus on gathering the most interesting tutorials.; followed as usual with everyone's introductions/updates; Mark will demo how to create a basic cookiecutter template [cookiecutter is the dominant project templating utility].  And finally we'll discuss Mike's links: Python 3.12, time zone pitfalls, simulation/emulation, async in Django 4.2, and the usual mix of the latest tools, testing, and tutorials.  And if anyone has time to look into air quality APIs, that would be a timely addition!

And as always, your questions/ideas/doings are welcome--so join us!
Note our unchanging meeting url--use the Jitsi meeting link on our home page.

The PrincetonPublicLibrary invited Mark back for a new and improved Python for Beginners series on Wednesdays!  Each session now stands alone, covering a distinct facet of the language.

But first, check out AI Study Group this Sunday!  [pushed back a week to June 11th]  Rick says:
    We'll be doing a warm-up ML example inspired by last month's Princeton Python opener [imitation being the sincerest flattery, thanks Rick!].
    Topics: alternative [eg open source] large language models; demo using Gradio to make an RSVP system with an integrated chat bot.
