Hey Zac, Generally, good programmers are gold in Australia right now. We have been hiring many in recent months, both directly and for our portfolio companies and it is hard.
I have found Python/Django the hardest and I have mates at other companies who struggle greatly finding new team members. It is equally difficult to find good Python developers in offshore contexts such as India. That said, I'd go with what you know best and enjoy working with (tick for Python), what is well supported by an active community (tick for Python), is easy to learn if you are a good programmer (tick for Python). Good luck! :) Phil Pollenizer On Mar 14, 9:10 pm, Zac Altman <basand...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey all, > > I plan to use Django for my next project, but I fear Australia doesn't > have enough of a Django/Python scene.
