Django 5.0 Is Released
Congrats on the release to the Django community!
If anyone is curious, I updated my Django / Docker starter kit app to use Django 5.0 at: https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example
It pulls together gunicorn, Celery, Redis, Postgres, esbuild and Tailwind with Docker Compose. It's set up to run in both development and production.

What's the correct way to install or version up packages when using Docker and Poetry?
For example I edit the regular non-lock file and then run ./run pip3:install from my host which handles the above. A repo with an example Django project in Docker can be found here https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example. There's a pip3-install script in the bin/ directory, you can replace that with Poetry commands instead.

Docker advantages for a single developer?
Currently, I'm using a modified version of this Docker setup (https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example) to work locally and build/deploy a production image. However, using PyCharm as my IDE, the development process is incredibly slow, especially when adding or removing Python packages. It takes at least 3 minutes to rebuild the Docker image after adding a package, and PyCharm has to update its index. Additionally, PyCharm's inspector sometimes gets confused about which packages are already installed based on the requirements.txt.

psycopg2 in production
If you're using Docker with a Debian based image you only need to apt install libpq-dev and you're good to go, it only needs to exist in your Docker image not your VPS directly. I've been using it for years. Here's a working example if you want to poke around https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example.

How to Dockerize any Django Application: A Step-by-Step Tutorial
On a positive note, I would recommend perhaps looking at https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example for a good, somewhat beginner guide for django + docker work.

What is your development cycle when using docker and containers? What's the general flow between developing locally and running the containers to test.
I put together https://github.com/nickjj/docker-django-example which pulls together a typical Django set up using Gunicorn, Celery, Postgres, Redis, esbuild and Tailwind.

Pyenv – lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python
> Why is the "requirements.txt" file a stupid flat listing of all transitive dependencies with pinned versions? It makes it harder to change library versions even if there are no true conflicts.
My friend, here is what you seek: https://github.com/jazzband/pip-tools
requirements.txt is flat because it's really the output of `pip freeze`. It's supposed to completely and exactly rebuild the environment. Unfortunately it's far too flexible and people abuse it by putting in only direct dependencies etc.
If you're writing packages, you don't need a requirements.txt at all, by the way. Package dependencies (only direct dependencies) live in pyproject.toml with the rest of the package config. requirements.txt (and pip tools) are only for when you want to freeze the whole environment, like for a server deployment.

lockfiles for hatch projects
For all my projects I found myself regenerating manual lock files using complex shell commands with pip-compile to get a reproducible environments across devices using a custom pre-install-command. I finally decided that instead of hacking together the same solution on all my projects I would build a plugin that handles this complexity for me.

Setting up Django in a Better Way in 5 Minutes and Understanding How It Works
Instead of venv, we are using pip-tools in this starter kit. pip-tools take things further in dependency management. Check out what pip-tools does in their official GitHub repo. In short, it helps your project find the best match for the dependent packages. For example, you might need two packages A and B in your project that requires same package C under the hood. But A requires any version of C from 1.0.1 to 1.0.10 and B requires any version of C from 1.0.7 to 1.0.15. Pip tools will automatically compile the version of 'C' that suits for both of your packages.

just-pip-tools: An example of managing python dependencies as layered lock files with just and pip-tools
I've created a small project called just-pip-tools that combines pip-tools and just to manage Python dependencies in a layered approach. This isn't a magic bullet; it's a set of files you can adapt to your needs.

Maintaining virtual environments
For small projects I recommend pip-tools. Just write packet list in requirements.in and pip-compile compile a requirements.txt with comments.

I recommend generating a lockfile to document this information, as you might do with pip-tools.
