A lot of time has been spent on making Django not-too-magical while keeping the rapid development time. I've found that it rarely does too much automatic stuff behind my back.
Just a couple examples of high-level stuff that isn't too-high-for-your-own-good: * Database access. You can still use Python's much lower-level DB-API to play with the database, and you can still make it look nice to use. Check out the raw SQL query in this Custom Managers example: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/model_api/#custom-managers Also, the project management commands like 'sqlreset' show you what the abstracted model is doing under the covers. * Templating. Templates really are just text files, no structure is forced upon you, nothing gets changed around or added behind the scenes. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
