#496 Scaf: Complete blueprint for new Python Kubernetes projects
Today we explore the wild world of Python deployment with my friend, Calvin Hendryx-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.

Have you ever wondered why certain data points stand out so dramatically? They might hold the key to everything from fraud detection to groundbreaking discoveries. This week on Talk Python to Me, we dive into the world of outlier detection with Python with Brett Kennedy. You’ll learn how outliers can signal errors, highlight novel insights, or even reveal hidden patterns lurking in the data you thought you understood. We’ll explore fresh research developments, practical use cases, and how outlier detection compares to other core data science tasks like prediction and clustering. If you're ready to spot those game-changing anomalies in your own projects, stay tuned.
In this episode, we welcome back Will McGugan, the creator of the wildly popular Rich library and founder of Textualize. We’ll dive into Will’s latest article on “Algorithms for High Performance Terminal Apps” and explore how he’s quietly revolutionizing what’s possible in the terminal, from smooth animations and dynamic widgets to full-on TUI (or should we say GUI?) frameworks. Whether you’re looking to supercharge your command-line tools or just curious how Python can push the limits of text-based UIs, you’ll love hearing how Will’s taking a modern, web-inspired approach to old-school terminals.
This episode is all about Beeware, the project that working towards true native apps built on Python, especially for iOS and Android. Russell’s been at this for more than a decade, and the progress is now hitting critical mass. We’ll talk about the Toga GUI toolkit, building and shipping your apps with Briefcase, the newly official support for iOS and Android in CPython, and so much more. I can’t wait to explore how BeeWare opens up the entire mobile ecosystem for Python developers, let's jump right in.
