My name is Lilian and I started contributing to Django during the sprint days of DjangoCon US 2023. I continued contributing through the Djangonaut Space program, where I've been involved as a mentee, a mentor, and a session organizer. I love the impact the program brings to Django and how it has helped so many individuals in various ways. My hobbies include cooking and sharing meals with my friends and volunteering at local events.
At the time, I was mainly using Flask for other projects, but I started seeing Django rise in popularity. I evaluated PHP and Django, and I chose Django for its security features. The fact that it was in Python also meant I could develop the new features pretty quickly. The project ended up being a hybrid of PHP and Django with Apache server routing different pages to each application.
