About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Python Software Foundation is to promote, protect, and advance the Python programming language, and to support and facilitate the growth of a diverse and international community of Python programmers.
About
PyCon is organized by the Python community for the community and is a diverse conference dedicated to providing an inclusive experience. The PSF hosts the annual PyCon US, which is the largest conference dedicated to promoting the Python language. PyCon 2018 was held in Cleveland, OH and attracted over 3,400 attendees. The conference begins with two days of Python tutorials and a Python Language Summit, followed by a three-day core conference, and finishing with four days of programming sprints. This conference draws Python developers from beginner to expert levels providing opportunities to learn and share significant advances in the Python Community and to meet and network with fellow developers. Education sessions are presented on multiple tracks to address topics of interest at all levels, from object-oriented programming to sophisticated web development and scientific computation. The PSF works to keep registration low in comparison to other technology conferences to make PyCon accessible to the widest group possible.
