We're sitting down with Eric Matthes, the educator, author, and developer behind Django Simple Deploy. If you've ever struggled with taking that final step of getting your Django app onto a live server (without spending days wrestling with DevOps complexities), then give Django Simple Deploy a look. Eric shares how Django Simple Deploy automates away the boilerplate parts of deployment, so you can focus on building features instead of deciphering endless configs. We'll talk about this new project's journey to 1.0, the range of hosting platforms it supports, and why it's not just for beginners.
