Decentralized, accessible mesh networking is finally within our grasp, and the ecosystem around it is powered by Python. Want to chat without any centralized ISP? How about setting up your own private Internet of Things network? Or maybe you just want to stay in touch in areas without cell signal. Mesh networking has you covered. In this talk, we'll cover the underlying LoRaWAN technology that's powering modern mesh networking, the advantages and limitations of current meshnet implementations, the simplest ways to get started, and how to write Python code that communicates over the mesh.

 is a tool that packages Python code and dependencies into a single file. It provides various features such as determinism (given the same input files, you get a bit-for-bit identical output file), isolation (a PEX file runs in the bundled environment, isolated from the system’s site-packages), composition (multiple PEX files can be combined to form new environments), and more. We used a number of these feature to great effect in our solution. By using PEX in addition to Docker we were able to reduce the time a developer waits for code to deploy from 3-4 minutes to about 30 seconds.
Shipping code isnt the only use for PEX. Once we see how PEX files work, we will also go over a few fun tips and tricks that are handy for everyday Python development.
North Bay Python is a boutique one-track conference, held in Petaluma, California. Our first events were held in 2017-2019 in a 100 year-old theater in the citys downtown. After a planned one-year break thats turned into almost four years, were excited to return!
This year, were holding our conference in July, in a barn, on a ranch overlooking the Petaluma River.
