Discovering descriptors
a talk by Mariano Anaya

Descriptors are often not that common to be found, compared to other idioms (decorators, context managers, etc.). However, they provide a powerful tool for improving our code, by enabling us to encapsulate logic into different objects transparently.

The talk will cover the descriptor protocol, different types of descriptors, and some examples where descriptors shine, yielding a very elegant and efficient solution.

This talk is aimed at advanced Pythonistas. (While it might be interesting for beginners we recommend them to choose another talk.)
