Often developers design APIs that expose more than is needed – unnecessary fields, redundant relationships, and endpoints that no one asked for. These kinds of practices later on introduce communication overhead, extra maintenance costs, negative performance impacts, and waste time that could have been spent better otherwise. We'll walk through how to design minimal APIs that are straight forward to use, and that are exactly what our consumers need! PUBLICATION PERMISSIONS:

As organizations and repos grow, we have to choose how to manage codebases in a scalable way. We have two architectural alternatives: Multirepo: split the codebase into increasing numbers of small repos, along team or project boundaries.
Monorepo: Maintain one large repository containing code for many projects and libraries, with multiple teams collaborating across it. In this talk we'll discuss the advantages of monorepos for Python codebases, and the kinds of tooling and processes we can use to make working in a Python monorepo effective. At the end of this talk you will understand the tradeoffs of different codebase architecture choices, and how to evaluate tooling and processes that keep your repo humming along at scale. No prior knowledge is required. PUBLICATION PERMISSIONS:

Can simple open source tools compete with the music recommendations provided by Spotify and other big names? This talk will look at how the open source world can stay relevant in a world where music listening has become dependent on commercial streaming services and users expect an element of recommendations. Expect to see small-tech solutions for music recommendations based around GNOME's Tracker search engine and the open, community-powered database Musicbrainz. PUBLICATION PERMISSIONS:
