It all depends on your needs, if they can all be provided out of the box by a cms and a few plugins than I don't see any big advantage to doing in yourself with django or any other framework. On the other hand if you do need more than they can easily provide Django is a great alternative. It's not a kitchen sink type framework though, so you may have to hunt several places to solutions for some of the common tasks. A few of good ones: www.djangosnippets.org (awesome site, 10x more so if there were a search or you could browse tags by first letter rather than next, next, next...) http://www.b-list.org/weblog/categories/django/ http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/DjangoResources (I used django for months and reinvented a wheel or two before finding this page. I guess I'm blind) Having spent the last few days making a wordpress plugin to integrate with our django powered site I'm reminded how much nicer to deal with python is than php. That alone is a big 'feature' django has over Wordpress and Joomla. I've never regretted choosing Django. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
