Build It Once, Ship It Everywhere: Creating Reusable Python Packages

Pip install @#@#@#! Have you ever wondered where these libraries we pip install come from? How were they built? who built them? Can I build them too?
But wait, how did they end up at PyPi registry? What is PyPi?
In this session we uncover the truth behind building reusable Python libraries, that can be published in the registry and be reused by everyone. How do we build them will be uncovered? How do we ship them to the registry? We will get to understand this with real world scenario, where we will build a simple librabry, publish it and import it to our code to build something.


This with the heart of a DevOps culture, we will automate the process of packaging and publishing it to the registry.
