Issue #609 (Dec. 26, 2023)

#609 – DECEMBER 26, 2023

A lot has happened in the Python ecosystem in 2023 and with our final issue of the year, we’re recapping the most popular links in PyCoders this year. That’s right, the most clicked articles, discussion, and the five most clicked projects as well.

Here’s to you, dear reader. Thanks for continuing to be with us at PyCoder’s Weekly. I’m sure 2024 will be just as interesting as 2023. And if in 2024 you come across a cool article or a project you think deserves notice, send it to us.

Happy Pythoning!
