In the age of instant gratification, users expect web applications to be lightning-fast and highly responsive. This talk introduces the concept of Just-in-Time (JIT) or Lazy Development with Django and HTMX, where resources are fetched and rendered only when the user actually needs them.

Through practical examples, we'll explore how to use Django and HTMX to efficiently load data, such as dynamically fetching dropdown options only when a user hovers over a button or filling a modal when the modal is being opened. This approach not only improves performance and reduces server load but also enhances the user experience by delivering just the right amount of data at the right time.

Whether you're building a large-scale application or optimizing a SaaS product, you'll walk away with actionable insights on implementing JIT techniques to make your Django apps faster, leaner, and smarter.
