About Us

The PyTexas Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit run by a Texas-based volunteer group. We are Python enthusiasts that want to share the programming language with the world, starting right here in Texas. We host and support a variety of programs that benefit the Python community in Texas, including an annual conference and virtual monthly meetup, a virtual community for the Python developers in Texas and beyond, and various in-person meetups in cities throughout the state.

History

Founded in 2014, meetup organizers from Houston, Austin, and San Antonio came together to establish a non-profit organization whose mission would be to serve the Python community in Texas. Glen Zangirolami, Jeremy Boyd, and Kevin Horn were the Foundation's founders and first Board of Directors. In 2022, Mason Egger was elected as president of the board, taking over for Glen.
