I've been using Django for about 1-2 weeks now. I must say it is one of the most exciting web frameworks I ever worked with. It is clean, elegant, easy, and most importantly makes sense. I've tried to use many other MVC frameworks but Django is by far better. However I am also disappointed on a few things about Django that I hope it'll get improved with its large community support.
1) Django is not easy to start for a newbie: One of the main reasons is, because of the limited resources. Such as books (they get out dated as soon as they're published, due to Django's fast changes). Online resources mostly out dated and are not kept up to date. (e.g. www.djangobook.com) 2) Django has drastic changes between releases: Oh boy, try to follow the Django book to create an admin site. Turns out that with the release 1.x. this has significantly changed from the prior release. 3) There are other minor issues and gotchas blocks you from development and requires exhausting googling in order to move forward due to lack of up to date documentation, limited resources, and again Django's fast changes. I know Django is new and improving. I just wanted to point out these issues a newbie is might be facing. PS: I might be wrong on this but as far as I know Django does not ship with any example site that demonstrates the commonly used functionality. Such as form processing, ajax, sessions, templating, etc... This would be a great resource to add to the Django distribution package. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
