This April we joined forces with the Django Software Foundation to get as much support as possible from our audience for Django.
In one month we managed to reach out to thousands of Pythonistas who helped us with this fundraiser campaign promotion. Thanks to your active participation, shares, reposts, and purchases, we managed to raise $45K for the DSF.
This represents roughly 20% of the DSF’s overall budget, which goes directly towards funding the continued development and support of Django via the Django Fellowship program and Django conferences worldwide.
Apart from the fundraiser itself, we created educational materials for those interested in Django. Take a look at:
- This episode of our Early Access PyCharm podcast about Django support in PyCharm. It will help you understand how exactly you can benefit from PyCharm while developing in Django.
- This extensive tutorial on developing Django apps on AWS.
- This webinar on tips and tricks for Django with PyCharm by Paul Everitt.
If you would like to contribute to the Django community, the fundraiser is still ongoing and you can donate directly at djangoproject.com.
Thanks again to all contributors for your support!
