A Global Team Tackles World Problems with Django 🧭
summary
A small engineering team spread across 13 time zones builds a cloud lab app that replaces messy Excel sizing sheets with a single Django + React app storing configurations and sizing outputs in a database, exportable back into the client’s workflow. Collaboration uses Git pull-request reviews, Slack huddles and Zoom; asynchronous work lets reviewers pick up changes across time, cuts version chaos, speeds access to accurate calculations, and scales to large container‑sized energy storage deployments.
