Just a note - the single layout is an html page designed content blog type content. it should support a TOC. the splash page is designed for a landing page - a more flowing / scrolling page that doesn't necessarily have indexable sections.

that makes sense, thanks!

Along with [Timo Metzger](https://cfp.scipy.org/2024/speaker/HMRG3H/) and [Bryan Van de Ven](https://cfp.scipy.org/2024/speaker/BBLFMK/), pyOpenSci community member [Pavithra Eswaramoorthy](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pavithraes/) will be covering everything you need to know to create beautiful and powerful interactive plots from scratch using Bokeh’s latest features. Starting with a quick introduction of Bokeh’s core concepts, the team will cover creating and customizing simple static plots like line and bar charts before introducing layers of interactivity, creating specialized plotting features like geographic maps, contour plots, Mathematical Text, and discussing new additions to Bokeh like ImageStacks. By the end, you will be able to create a complete interactive dashboard using Bokeh.

he's a spatial editor.

By the end of this tutorial, you will have an understanding of the fundamental components that form a RAG model, and practical knowledge of open source tools that can help you or your organization explore and build on your own applications. This tutorial is designed to enable enthusiasts in our community to explore an interesting topic using some beginner-friendly Python libraries.

### [Create Your First Python Package: Make Your Python Code Easier to Share and Use](https://cfp.scipy.org/2024/talk/QT9GBY/)
Led by pyOpenSci’s Executive Director and Founder, [Leah Wasser](https://github.com/lwasser), in this tutorial session you’ll learn how to:

Can you please add Isabel and Jeremiah to this? i've added them both to the landing page as well.

Isabel is an editor as well / emeritus eic. jeremiah - is leading work on our packaging guide (among other things!).

This talk from [Richard Iannone](https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-iannone-a5640017/), whose package [Great Tables](https://posit-dev.github.io/great-tables/articles/intro.html) is currently [under review with pyOpenSci](https://github.com/pyOpenSci/software-submission/issues/202), will provide a demonstration of Great Tables, showing how data can come alive in when in tabular form. We’ll use data from the fields of meteorology, chemistry, and the atmospheric sciences within our table-making examples. We’ll learn how the different components of a table (e.g., the column labels, the header, etc.) can be manipulated to best convey the data. We believe tables are worthy of being deemed data visualizations and we hope that Great Tables can become an indispensable tool in your data analysis workflow.

### [From Code to Clarity: Using Quarto for Python Documentation](https://cfp.scipy.org/2024/talk/GFGSTS/)
[Isabel Zimmerman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/isabel-zimmerman/), a member of our triage team and an Emeritus Editor in Chief, will be speaking from her experiences as an open source developer who works with multilingual tools, and how Quarto + quartodoc helped to fill those gaps. This talk is intended for anyone who might have to communicate with stakeholders through code using a web-based format. She’ll be focusing on Python package documentation websites, but the stories and examples expose the difficulties in many types of technical communication. The intent is to have a lighthearted talk filled with examples of how to make technical communication and publishing easier and more accessible.
