Talk 1: Creating QR codes with Python

Talk 2: Creative coding with Joy

Joy is a creative coding library for Python that makes it easy to create graphics. In this talk, Sudha will introduce Joy and demonstrate how to use it to create interesting shapes and animations.

About our meetups

Our talks happen in a friendly and informal setting. They are a great way to learn new things, share your knowledge, and meet other Python enthusiasts. There is always room for questions and discussion. Our presentations and talks are in English to be accessible for the large amount of non-Dutch speakers in the Python community.

How to register

The meetup is free of charge. Drinks are available for a small fee. We ask for a small donation to help cover small expenses, but this is not required. To register, sign up on our Meetup event page. Meetup accounts let you receive notifications for future events and allow us to track attendance.

We’re excited to meet you and have you be a part of the Python community in Leiden. See you there!
