Django

Hi all,

Very new to django, after building a few sites with flask.

I haven't chosen my frontend, but am considering a classic bulma, bootstrap or similar front end using classic templates.

My question is, is there a standard/ preferred way to implement a shortcut key to search input box workflow?

For example, user presses / key, and cursor goes to search input, so they can start searching.

Thanks so much

FWIW, I'm also adding the newer Built With Django (as mentioned in the article) to the sidebar.

Only tangentially related to Django, but still an interesting article about tooling.

Most approaches to using webpack with Django work until the JavaScript app is tiny. What happens when the bundle grows?

Thinking about replacing the current logo of the community by one which fits more into Lemmy's profile picture size. Purposing this image.

Summary

• The number of workers for Gunicorn, Uvicorn and Hypercorn should be CPU * 2 + 1
• The number of threads for WSGI apps should be WORKERS * 2 as a minimum unless you don’t have a lot of memory. If you have more memory you can increase this number
• The number of threads for ASGI apps is irrelevant because it uses coroutines to dispatch requests
• ASGI can be faster and scale better than WSGI but only if you’ve written your application as async from the framework to the backend
• Test your setup using Locust or a similar tool to verify these assumptions
• Don’t forget about modelling static content in your load tests

I gave this talk at PyCascades 2021 and decided to turn it into a series of blog posts so it's available to folks who didn't attend the conference or don't like to watch videos. Here are the slides and the video if you want to see them.

Async Python can be useful in the right situation, but one of the tricky things about it is that it requires a bit more effort to run than normal synchronous Python, because you need an async event loop that can run and manage all your async functions.
