Python in Science, AI and Event Management Projects at FOSSASIA

Description:

Python is a general-purpose programming language that is very suitable for community driven development. In this talk I will introduce Python projects in the FOSSASIA community. From scientific apps like Pocket Science Lab to components in the voice assistant framework SUSI.AI or the Flask backend in the Open Event management system Python plays a pivotal role in FOSSASIA. The combination of its approach of constructs and object-orientation and FOSSASIA’s best practices and merge policies support developers to write clear and logical code and build better applications.

Prerequisites:

Suitable for developers with technical understanding of development processes, development experts and project managers.
