Lucas Pires
Based in Porto, Portugal. More than 5 years of experience as a Software Engineer, currently working at CheckSec.
My primary focus is exploring the benefits of the hypermedia-based architecture using HTMX and AlpineJS. I've been developing and migrating existing Django applications from MPAs or SPAs to the HTMX architecture for more than 3 years.
In previous roles, I have contributed to the development of several products across the education and real estate sectors, including event management software, CMS platforms, GIS integration, and other specialized solutions. Beyond my full-time work, I’ve built and deployed freelance applications currently in production for clients in the automotive and driving education industries.
I hold a MsC in Networks and Computer Systems Engineering from the University of Porto. Additionally, I have experience lecturing web development courses and have spoken at international Python and Django conferences.
Session
This talk will approach tried and tested patterns for building applications using Django and HTMX.
A broad set of topics covering all layers of a typical Django application will be covered to show how to maximize the effectiveness of building an application using the hypermedia driven approach.
