Christchurch Python Meetup – July 2026

Menno Finlay-Smits: Projects I Don’t Use Python For in 2026
I used to want to use Python for everything and owe much of my career to Python. In recent years I don’t reach for it as much. What do I use instead? How does the rise of AI assisted coding affect the tools that I choose? Where does Python still shine?
