How a journalist does Django

Django isn’t just for building websites.

He’ll highlight the beauty and the limits of the ORM, and show how Reveal used Django to turn a pile of CSVs into a hard-hitting story and a valuable tool for Californians who want to know what pesticides are being applied near them.
