Django's template-based form rendering: thoughts and pains

Short (well, I tried) collection of thoughts and impressions after moving to Django-native template-based form rendering with pretalx, my ~medium-sized(?) Django project.

When Carlton threatened to read my code (shock, horror), I decided to just write up my impressions, and a gist/pastebin/etc seemed the right format, cuz this isn’t polished enough for a blog post, and also way not constructive enough.

def defuzzy(message):
    import pathlib, polib
    pofiles = list(pathlib.Path(".").glob("pretalx/**/**/django.po"))
    for path in pofiles:
        po = polib.pofile(path)
        entry = po.find(message)
        if entry and entry.fuzzy:
            entry.flags.remove("fuzzy")
            entry.previous_msgid = None
        po.save()

Man page browser comparison

There are a bunch of man page browsers available online. They have different data sources, feature sets, and disadvantages, so here is a short comparison table:

Name	ls man page	No Trackers/Ads	Clickable Headings	Links²	ToC¹	Local Search	Noteworthy
Arch manual pages	ls
