Makers of AIR, the new Python web framework.

We also wrote Two Scoops of Django and Cookiecutter (5M+ monthly downloads). We've helped 1M+ developers ship better code.

Air: The Web Framework We Wished Existed

Built with FastAPI, Starlette, HTMX, and Pydantic

After years of obsessing over Django best practices, we felt compelled to write a web framework of our own.

AIR builds upon our favorite modern Python libraries, provides great patterns from the start, and is obsessively optimizied to work beautifully with LLMs.

We use it in production everywhere now—and you can too.

import air

app = air.Air()

@app.page
def index():
    return air.layouts.mvpcss(
        air.Title("My Air App"),
        air.H1("Hello, Air!"),
        air.P("Building modern web apps with Python")
    )

Audrey sees repetitive developer work and builds tools to eliminate it. Her project templating tool Cookiecutter saves developers countless hours—downloaded over 5 million times monthly with 23.8k GitHub stars.

As PyLadies' first president and cofounder in 2011, she built the organization from scratch—handcrafting the first website to the logo to the chapter kit that helped launch a global movement. She also created DjangoPackages.org to help developers discover the best Django tools.

MIT-trained engineer, Two Scoops co-author, and devoted mother to Uma, who keeps her grounded between building the next generation of developer tools.

Daniel believes great code should be accessible to everyone. His Two Scoops of Django series became the definitive guide for tens of thousands of developers worldwide, and he's contributed code to hundreds of open source packages.

From organizing the first PyCon Philippines to building django-crispy-forms, he's spent decades making Python development better for everyone. His work at NASA, Kraken Technologies, and AI research labs taught him that robust, maintainable code isn't just nice-to-have—it's essential.

When not coding, he's watching documentaries and Mark Rober videos with his daughter Uma, feeding their curiosity about how things work.

Support the Tools You Use

If Cookiecutter, Two Scoops, Air, or our other projects have ever saved you time, you know what we're capable of.

Financial backing buys us focus time to make Air substantially better, polish docs, and battle-test releases for the Python community.

Direct Sponsorship

We'd like to say one day that monthly sponsors keep us in build mode, paying for our development time and giving Air the momentum it needs to become the next Django. Help us get there!

We don't promise perks formally, instead showing gratitude in better ways than any tier would provide. Like a special mention here to our first $500 champions: Parlance Labs. Hamel Husain is someone we deeply respect, and his early belief in us has been invaluable.
