Hi Michael,
Alyssa and I are still writing the code for the upcoming August meeting.
Our current expectation is to touch on the Django REST Framework and
discuss the implications of using it. Given the limited time of the
meeting, our goal will be to hit a lot of the basics of Django and REST.
We will prepare extra content in case the core material finishes quickly.
If you have specific in-depth questions, we will cover those as time
allows. Additionally, at least one of us will attend the food event
afterwards and can field questions there.
Hope that helps! We hope to see you there!

I know there are multiple options, but that one is of particular
interest
to me at the moment.
Thanks,

What: Ever wanted to learn more about Django? Django is a
high-level
Python Web framework that makes it easier to build better Web apps
more
quickly and with less code. Do you want to know more? Want to check
out
that snazzy built-in Admin interface that comes standard with
Django?
Learn how to migrate a Django model? How about building a REST API
from
the ground up using Django views? Then bring your gear and
code-along
with us as we cover these topics and others of interest. We will
build a
simple working project for Inventory Management and you can take it
home
to continue learning. If you’re still confused or just want to
learn
more than the basics, we will have a general Q&A at the end. Let’s
Django! Our presenters are Kenny Yarboro and Alyssa Andrews. Kenny
holds
a Master of Computer Science and B.S. in Computer Science degree
from
North Carolina State University. He has over 8 years of software
industry experience spanning web services, automation, product
development, and product support. His current focus is building
self-service automation for IT request fulfillment. Kenny has
previously
given presentations at DjangoCon 2014 & 2015 and PyCon 2015. Alyssa
is
currently pursuing a B.S. degree in Computer Science from North
Carolina
State University and will graduate May of 2017. She has worked two
internships, one with IBM and one with SAS, over her summers since
her
freshman year. Her skill sets include Python, Django, Java,
JavaScript,
HTML, CSS and she currently works alongside a team whose goal is
self-service automation throughout IT at SAS. Extemporaneous
"lightning
talks" of 5-10 minute duration are also welcome and don't need to
be
pre-announced. Plenty of free after hours parking is available in
the
upper level of the deck behind WebAssign (turn through the median
just
before the intersection of Varsity and Main Campus Drives). If the
door
is locked, call the number posted on the door. An after-meeting
location
for food and beverage will be decided at the meeting (usually BaDa
Wings
for the Thursday night draught specials).
