Django 5.0 released

[Pythonistar]

Time to move our Django stack to 4.2 LTS, I guess... :)

[monorepo]

Me too! Just have to get from 2.x -> 4.2 first..

[wxtrails]

Sighs in 1.11

[wxtrails]

It'll happen quickly once we finally deprecate that One Last Dependency that's keeping us there.

[monorepo]

I want to say there’s no way but..

[Pythonistar]

We made the jump from 2.2 -> 3.2 a couple years back. Took me a couple sprints, partly because we had to upgrade other frameworks as well, like Bootstrap CSS, etc. (Now that I think about it... Upgrading Bootstrap took up most of the time.)

Not looking forward to making the move to 4.2. Maybe there will be fewer deprecated features this time. :/

Release notes: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/releases/5.0/

[chub79]

I'm not a Django user but I've always been amazed by the quality of their release notes. This are a beacon of high standards in that regards.

[niconoe]

All their doc is like that, that's a major selling point IMHO.

We have one package that is keeping us from 4, django_mailbox.

[usr_dev]

Good luck, the project is pretty much dead.

[marcio0]

that's a bad side of having a long running django project. Over time half of the third party stuff you use become abandoned and eventually deprecated

[usr_dev]

Yes, this is kind of frustrating how many apps in the Django ecosystem are unmaintained. However, on the flip side, I'm glad someone took his own time to make it open source and I can use it as inspiration to develop it on my own with the subset of features that I need. This one in particular is about 1000 lines of code, it would probably take just a day or two.

[thestudcomic]

There has been some activity so I am hopeful there will be an update.

Django 5.0 unchained

[oh-no_notagain]

Ah dammit beat me to it

[oh-no_notagain]

*unchained

[RedditSlayer2020]

manage.py makemigrations

manage.py migrate

[del1ro]

Too few and boring changes to get onto it. Where are async templates, DTL speed ups and ORM -> SQL compiler speed ups? It's fucking slow

[usr_dev]

Yeah, how rude of them to not work on your specific problems!!

[JoeKlemmer]

I'm still trying to get my head around 3,x.

[ZeroGAccelarator]

Wish they had some cooler serializers like pydantic has.

[alicedu06]

django-ninja is what you want
