Episode description
Today we explore the wild world of Python deployment with my friend, Calvin Hendricks-Parker from Six Feet Up. We’ll tackle some of the biggest challenges in taking a Python app from “it works on my machine” to production, covering inconsistent environments, conflicting dependencies, and sneaky security pitfalls. Along the way, Calvin shares how containerization with Docker and Kubernetes can both simplify and complicate deployments, especially for smaller teams. Finally, we’ll introduce Scaf, a powerful project blueprint designed to give developers a rock-solid start on Python web projects of all sizes.Get notified when the Talk Python in Production book goes live and read the first third online right now.
