Django still require templates, basically HTML from you, in order to make content be delivered to the user's browser. It is still best to use CSS to do things like positioning content into two or three columns with a header a footer (a pretty standard organization). It still requires something like Apache or nginx in front of it for a well performing and secure site, which can server non-dynamic content just fine without Django. (If you are getting as far as a shopping cart, or frequently updating prices and available quantities, that is another story.)
There are content management apps available for Django (my personal site uses fiber), which allow much content creation and editing without looking at HTML, but this is usually be means of a WYSIWYG editor (on the page being edited, implemented using JavaScript), but I'm not sure how much that helps you.
