Description:
Attendees at EuroPython had the chance to preview part of Python: The 
Documentary during a
keynote panel . The full film, created by CultRepo , is now available on 
YouTube : 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. The video of the keynote is also available.
