Django has supported Oracle since 2006!

Django Reinhardt was a jazz guitarist, from whom the framework takes its name. Jacob Tyler Walls, Natalia Bidart, and Sarah Boyce are the current Django Fellows.

The Django Software Foundation is a US non-profit with the aim of promoting, supporting, and advancing the Django web framework.

CSP stands for Content Security Policy, a security feature that helps prevent XSS attacks, as newly supported in Django 6.0!

The @task decorator is new in Django 6.0 for defining background tasks, which you can use like:

from django.tasks import task

from example.models import User


@task
def send_welcome_email(user_id):
    user = User.objects.get(id=user_id)
    ...

DjangoCon Europe 2026 will be held in Athens, Greece. See you there?

A testing classic! Use self.client.get(url) to make a GET request with Django's test client, like:

from django.test import TestCase


class IndexTests(TestCase):
    def test_success(self):
        response = self.client.get("/index/")

        assert response.status_code == 200
        ...

The Model.objects.in_bulk() method returns a dictionary of primary keys to model instances. For example:

In [1]: Book.objects.in_bulk([1, 2, 3])
Out[1]:
{1: <Book: Brave New World (id=1)>,
 2: <Book: Slaughterhouse-Five (id=2)>,
 3: <Book: 1984 (id=3)>}

The <dialog> element has been available since 2022, and was extended by the Invoker Commands API this year. You can now make a <dialog> that is opened by a <button> without any JavaScript like so:

<button commandfor=subscribers command=show-modal>
  View subscribers
</button>

<dialog id=subscribers>
  <button commandfor=mydialog command=close>Close</button>
  <h2>Subscribers</h2>
  <!-- Insert contents here -->
</dialog>

Short, sweet, and powerful.
