I admit, tomorrow's launch of the Python documentary feels like a special marker in time. Python is Guido's, but also ours, all of us, and @[email protected] has captured that.

Come watch the premiere and join us in the chat.
Tomorrow at 5pm UTC Python: The Documentary produced by @cultrepo.bsky.social premieres on YouTube! 🎬🐍

From a side project in Amsterdam to a language shaping the world— discover the story of #Python. Featuring Guido van Rossum & many more!

Python: The Documentary | An origin story
This is the story of the world's most beloved programming language: Python. What began as a side project in Amsterdam during the 1990s became the software powering artificial intelligence, data science and some of the world’s biggest companies. But Python's future wasn't certain; at one point it almost disappeared. This 90-minute documentary features Guido van Rossum, Travis Oliphant, Barry Warsaw, and many more, and they tell the story of Python’s rise, its community-driven evolution, the conflicts that almost tore it apart, and the language’s impact on... well… everything. Thanks to our sponsors for making this documentary possible: Anaconda: https://www.anaconda.com/ @AnacondaInc.

The 2025 State of Python survey is now out!

This is the 8th annual collaboration between @python.org and @pycharm.dev on current trends in Python.

@mkennedy.codes wrote up a great summary of the results and key trends.

One of our favorite parts of #EuroPython2025 was listening to your feedback and hearing how you use PyCharm in real-world projects.

We loved engaging with the #Python community, chatting with developers, and showcasing the AI Toolkit.

🎥 Here's our recap of the inspiring week.

Our findings from the #Python Developers Survey done in collab with @python.org:

📊 51% use Python for data
🌐 46% use it for web dev
👨‍💻 Half of the community is new
🔧 83% still use older Python versions

Our open source Mellum model has a really unique and useful story as a “focal model.” The chat with Hugging Face should be quite an interesting dive into the idea.
Not every developer task requires a general-purpose LLM.

We’re betting on specialized focal LLMs – smaller, faster, and focused.

Join @jetbrains and @huggingface for a livestream on how focal models like Mellum will shape the industry.

🌍✨ EuroPython just ended.
In many hallway chats and community organisers open space, one issue came up again and again: Sponsorship.
Now that AI is taking the spotlight, I’m asking: Who's left behind?

We're proud of what we did on this. The metrics are quite exceptional. Thanks @aiwithmichelle.com for this cool explainer.
❓ Why did JetBrains build its own LLM? Because not every model needs to be a generalist.
Meet Mellum — a fast, lightweight LLM for code completion 🤝

I've been trying out @jetbrains.com Junie over the past few few days, and have pretty blown away with it.

I've managed to do everything from a complex refactoring of Haze (with follow up tasks), to fairly complex string manipulation (pretty printing data class toString).

My colleague @wordman.dev explains about Storybook 9 and its new testing mode. As he says, a "game-changer." I was tinkering with some ideas for Python as part of t-strings/tdom.

Some solid progress this week - Angular signals hitting stable, Nuxt 4 timeline, and noteworthy build performance numbers!
Plus thoughtful technical writing, and we've been working hard the last months for some pretty big news ourselves👇

Just shipped my first commit to the @jetbrains.com @angular.dev Plugin 🎉

Somehow it even passed the code review!

Either I'm secretly competent or Junie is really that good! Probably the latter.

Coming to @webstorm.jetbrains.com and other JetBrains IDEs soon!
