Into Python & want to experience how cool the Python Community is?
Join ~150 Pythonistas at SF Python's Project Night on 7/17!
The format is similar to an un-conference. We start with a free food & drink reception from our generous sponsor Instacart. After formal introductions, Pythonistas join up with like minds to:
