Yeah, I get what you mean. Used to work at a Java shop using Google Web Toolkit to build their web application, and it was ok. Until you tried to do something that GWT didn't like and had to figure workarounds. The reason GWT was picked was everyone in the company knew Java, and not JS. That worked until the issues with GWT couldn't be papered over any longer, and they started porting parts over to Angular, which required some people to become familiar with JS. That was on-the-job training.
Sounds like you really have two options: 1. Hire a competent FE dev to work with your team for the frontend and incorporate migrating your existing code to a RESTful API (with DRF, this isn't too big a deal), or 2. Assign a volunteer (or just tell someone) to get familiar with JS and evaluate angular, vue or react for your needs and become the in-house expert. Either way, its a significant investment in time and money because the team lacks the skills required. But it is an important skill to have in the web dev world and you really do risk being left behind without it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
