Is the popularity of Python reducing worldwide?

The choice of a programming language is often the result of personal preference and experience. Almost all the modern languages are quite capable of performing most of the major programming tasks as well as include the libraries essential for daily uses. Pyhton is a powerful, easy to use scripting language that is loved as well as hated by programmers across the globe. Although it is powerful but is equally opinionated and idiosyncratic. It is an excellent glue language that is preferred by the Python developers as they find it more productive than others. While there is constant competition from a new and advanced languages, the existence of Python might be threatened. One of the primary reasons why Python is seen as a limited language is because it differs considerably from others.

Django - The web framework for perfectionists

Django a web framework for modern web developers: In the era of web applications, it will be unfair if we don’t discuss about an powerful web development tool of the industry. We are talking about Django!! Last week, one of my friends asked me about Python programming. I told him that, Python is a super powerful language just like Java or in some cases it is better than Java. Moreover, if we compare the inbuilt functions, modules etc then Python is simply unbeatable. Python developers can deveop any complex and huge project with much better efficiency and accuracy that any other language. That time, we discussed about Django which is a Python web framework. Though Python can be used to develop any type of applications starting from web apps, Desktop apps, Mobile Apps etc but, Django is dedicated to web apps only and fortunately it performs outstanding for its cause.

Python Development Services Picks Up Steam

At Mindfire we have one of the best Python development team in India and our knowledge and experience enable our clients to get a high quality application developed within a short time and at a fraction of the cost of developing it locally. Python developers at Mindfire have knowledge in a variety of frameworks. We have expertise in frameworks like Django, Pinax, Zope and web2py and have done quite a number of projects in each of these frameworks.

Recently we worked in a project which was developed in Pinax. A small summary of the project and the work that we did is as given below: 

Executive Summary

Client wanted to create a world class social networking and collaboration platform for a highly technical group of users. A key feature that client wanted was a quick and easy way for the user to create and add search content.

We decided and proposed using Pinax which provides an integrated collection of Django applications that provide the most commonly needed social networking features. We also proposed highlighting of relevant content as the user types and creation of dynamic tags. 

Our Solution

We designed and implemented a Python Django based application that makes the tagging process automatic. Whenever a user posts either a blog or question or event, the content gets tagged automatically. We used OpenCalais API to get the tags from the content that the user enters. We also used Django Supertagging App to make all content tagging processes automatic. This included implementing inline highlighting of content as user types in the content. Along with Autotagging we also allowed users to enter their own tags to make the app as flexible and user friendly as possible. We used heavy Ajax implementation and used caching to avoid repeated calls to the OpenCalais API. Once the module was ready we integrated the code with design templates provided by the client.

Technologies Used

Python, Django, Pinax, niginx front end, apache backend, MySql, GIT, OpenCalais REST API for tagging.

The client was pleased with Mindfire’s effort and reckoned that they were happy to have discovered a professional offshore IT unit. We shall continue to be the service provider for the next versions of the client’s product. They have not only allocated the support and maintenance work of the current system to Mindfire but have also chosen us for future customization work.
