Display Ad implementation
I’m currently building an Ad feature for my companies website and building all the models from scratch with html and styles as well. I’m wondering if there are some other open source repos that have good setups for what I want. I’m only looking for display ads so nothing complicated like videos or anything.
Any help is appreciated.

I'm building a Django Boilerplate Code Platform to save a lot of time when developing Django projects.
If you have some time (2 minutes) I'm trying to gather suggestions from the Django Developer community to build a software that generates you a Django Project with a lot of stuff pre-configured, saving you a lot of hours of boring and repetitive code and configurations.
I would love if you could spend 2 minutes filling this form or just leave some suggestions for the platform down here on the comments:

Flake8 Import Guard: Automate Import Restriction Checks in Python Projects
# What My Project Does?
Flake8 Import Guard is a Flake8 plugin that automates the enforcement of import restrictions in Python projects. It detects forbidden imports in new and modified files, focusing on newly added imports in Git-versioned files.
The plugin is highly configurable through `.flake8` or `pyproject.toml` files, allowing teams to tailor import restrictions to their specific needs.
# Target Audience
* Python developers working on medium to large-scale projects
* Development teams looking to enforce coding standards
* Open-source maintainers wanting to control library usage
* Anyone looking to gradually phase out deprecated modules or prevent the use of certain libraries
* Teams aiming to streamline their code review process
# Comparison
While there are several Flake8 plugins that handle various aspects of import checking(While plugins like `flake8-forbidden-imports`, or `flake8-tidy-imports` offer some similar functionalities), Flake8 Import Guard offers a unique combination of features not found in other plugins:
* Git-aware checking
* Unlike other plugins, it only flags newly added imports by considering Git change history. This makes it ideal for introducing to existing projects without causing immediate disruption.
* Flexible configuration
* Offers easy setup through `.flake8` or `pyproject.toml` files, allowing teams to tailor import restrictions to their specific needs. Seamless integration with existing Flake8

Unable to resolve 404 Not Found Error
I have a functioning HTML page with the following 'Accept' anchor button inside a table.<td><a href="{{ url_for('accept_req', ad_id = ele[0].ad_id) }}" class="btn btn-outline-success">Accept</a></td>
Now I know for sure that ele[0].ad_id isnt causing the problem. Because the link is being generated.
But somehow the control is not reaching to the function definition:
@app.route('/edittable/acceptreq/<int:adid>', methods = 'GET', 'POST')
def acceptreq(adid):
#--------func definitions----
return
(rendertemplate("successpage.html"))
I am convinced that there is no similar named function or similar address (tried changing the route address but same result) function in my file.

Any startup or small / fast-moving teams using TDD with Django?
I am contemplating the idea of moving towards TDD when using Django. I've noticed that I spend a lot of time writing temporary scripts or playing around with the django shell when working on a specific piece of code. It feels fast enough and intuitive, but I feel like all this parallel work could be used to also have tests beside my code, and benefit from it a few months down the line.
I was scared of over engineering things or do too much at the same time, so haven't put too much effort in testing for my current project. My intuition was that, in order to be fast and simple for a first prototype / MVP, it was better to put TDD on the side. But things get complex fast and a couple months are enough to forget about certain pieces of my codebase.
I was wondering if some people are consistent in using TDD from the very start, even for small projects or prototypes that require fast delivery? Or if on the other hand some people have tried and concluded it was too much overhead?
Thank you!

Sharing what I would consider as a win
I consider myself as a baby in programming even though I have a CE degree.
I had received a notification on my Google account that its storage had reached 75%.
I could always pay a very small fee just for 100GB, but that's just a temporary fix - morphine for the pain.
So I needed to clean up my gmail manually - but not that manually.
I started googling and reading other people's codes who had already developed their own application for the same objective.
I don't know if this is considered stealing or cheating, but I took some for their code, tweaked it and mentioned their links in the [main.py](http://main.py/) file.
# Comparison
Here are their links (for comparison):
[https://github.com/marin117/Gmail-deleter/blob/master/src/gmail\_deleter.py](https://github.com/marin117/Gmail-deleter/blob/master/src/gmail_deleter.py)
[https://thepythoncode.com/article/use-gmail-api-in-python#google\_vignette](https://thepythoncode.com/article/use-gmail-api-in-python#google_vignette)
This is nothing more than a *personal project* - an idea that came to mind instead of temporarily fixing it with 100GB of additional storage.
# What My Project Does
Basically, it uses gmail's API to:
* **send messages** (did it to test the API).
* **get message-ids**.
* **delete messages**.
# Target Audience
Here is the link of the project for the curious minds:

Obviously, this project is for personal use.

How to go from intermediate to advanced in Django & HTMX? Seeking Guidance on Django & HTMX Best Practices
Dear Django Community,
Like many of you, I've fully embraced the HTMX hype and have been developing an application as part of my job (1-2 days per week) for the past two years. Working solo, I've made stellar progress and implemented an astonishing amount of features given my limited time. However, now that the codebase is growing, I'm running into challenges with architectural decisions and could really use some expert advice on how to improve further. Here are a few of the issues I've been struggling with lately:
1. Front-end Code Organization:
I have numerous partials that get swapped in and out, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to manage. My code is not very DRY; I find myself repeatedly implementing similar HTML swaps across the codebase. However, I’m also uncertain about reusing the same HTML code block in multiple locations. I’m unsure how to test such html blocks for proper swap-ins, and tracking dependencies reliably seems daunting. How do experts organize their front-end codebases to avoid such issues?
2. Dynamic Forms:
Initially, I implemented everything in pure HTML with HTMX, but the number of endpoints and swaps quickly spiraled out of control. Now, I use crispy_forms and submit the form on each change and then

LLM Aided OCR (Correcting Tesseract OCR Errors with LLMs with Python)
Code: https://github.com/Dicklesworthstone/llm\_aided\_ocr
# What My Project Does
Almost exactly 1 year ago, I made a little project using Llama2 (which had just come out) to improve the output of Tesseract OCR by correcting obvious OCR errors. That was exciting at the time because OpenAI's API calls were still quite expensive for GPT4, and the cost of running it on a book-length PDF would just be prohibitive. In contrast, you could run Llama2 locally on a machine with just a CPU, and it would be extremely slow, but "free" if you had a spare machine lying around.
Well, it's amazing how things have changed since then. Not only have models gotten a lot better, but the latest "low tier" offerings from OpenAI (GPT4o-mini) and Anthropic (Claude3-Haiku) are incredibly cheap and incredibly fast. So cheap and fast, in fact, that you can now break the document up into little chunks and submit them to the API concurrently (where each chunk can go through a multi-stage process, in which the output of the first stage is passed into another prompt for the next stage) and assemble it all in a shockingly short amount of time, and for basically a rounding error in terms of cost.
