### Where'd that yellow schoolbus come from?
There are many things we're told aren't worth building because experts have done them already. Cryptography? Let the experts handle it. Algorithms? Same. Web frameworks? Yep. As a professional web developer focusing on arcane uses of Django (and others) for arcane purposes, it occurred to me a little while ago that I didn’t actually know how a web framework worked. How does routing route? How does middleware work? How do variables in URLs work without regex? (Spoiler: they don't.)
So... I wrote one.
The Tangled Web We Weave is a love letter to learning and to doing things they tell you aren't worth your time. Come and get some inspiration on learning the answers to questions you don't know either... even if some folks say it's silly.
### What to expect
- Tips on how to tackle giant problems
- Three big takeaways learned while designing a WSGI web framework from the ground up
- Support and encouragement
### Who's this for?
Anyone who's feeling like they need a push to learn something new, anyone who wants to know some weird facts about web frameworks, and anyone who wants to learn a little bit about the beautiful science of learning with Python.
