This is a talk I gave last night at the Cleveland Web Standard Meetup, introducing the Python-based web framework
Django. It is a very, very basic talk, meant to introduce the concepts without digging into the code too deeply.
I want to thank Bridget Stewart, David Mead, Brad Colbow, Brad Dielman, Dave, and Joe Fiorini for being good sports when I turned them into my Living Web Application demonstration at the end of the talk.

For part 2, I’m thinking about drafting some of the members of the
Cleveland Python meetup to join me, and we’ll have the meeting break into groups and write a simple Django app from scratch.
(Note: Rewatching this, I realize a made a few errors. Oops. Boy, was I tired. I apologize to the Django team if I got anything horribly wrong.)
