Let's read code: the requests library

Description

Speaker: Susan Tan

How do you dissect a new unfamiliar codebase to understand its inner workings? Come see a guided walkthrough of reading the widely used python-requests project, which gets over 18,000 downloads per day and powers many of the world’s REST-based APIs.
