This month, I attended and presented at the first Wagtail Space conference/sprint in the USA. Wagtail Space USA, led by the parent company Torchbox, took place on June 14th–16th at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. This post is summary of the event.
The DevTeam at the CTL continuously research and evaluate existing and new software for possible uses in developing educational technologies at Columbia University. This post describes the evaluation process that led us to choosing Wagtail, an open source CMS written in Python on the Django framework, as one of the tools for us to use at the CTL.
