Re: Regarding Learning Django with collaboration

If you are in the Boston area, there are two excellent places to collaborate. First, the Boston Python meetup holds monthly "project nights" where you are welcome to bring your project over to Microsoft's New England Research center ("NERD") and work with volunteers who can answer questions, help y

Starting with Python 3 and Django 1.x?

I am new to Django, and relatively new to (well, re-learning) python. I am working on a website that requires a lot of bidirectional type. Sanity suggests that starting this off with Python 3 and all the built in Unicode sanity makes sense. The online tutorials assume Python 2. Are there equivale

Re: Starting with Python 3 and Django 1.x?

If I stick to Python 2.7, I start off with a host of Unicode issues--not a promising way to start a site that relies on Unicode, Middle Eastern character sets, and bidi functionality. I hate the last-century, Python 2 ways of dealing with those. That makes no sense, barring something more compellin

Re: Is django framework feasible for developing online LMS?

I am curious as to why you would write an LMS from scratch, rather than use an existing framework--edX uses Django and that code is open-sourced and available. Other open source possibilities, not relying on Django, include Moodle and Sakai. Creating a professional environment that supports the pr

Best practice - evolving from one to several sites using Django

Hi, I am new to this group and new to Django. I have several websites that I want to drag into the current century. Initially I planned to do this with Drupal and know that it is relatively simple to add configuration information, modules, themes, for new sites using one Drupal installation. W

putting together a simple calendar of events in Django

Hi, I have a website that has been using a version of the Moveable Type blogging tool for a simple calendar of events. This works quite well: By reversing the order of display, I am able to show events from today forward (as opposed to typical blog display of "today, back") What makes a Calendar

Re: Advice on python version for new project

If you're doing a CRM app, many advantages to using Python 3 and not having to deal with 2's Unicode issues. Names do not respect a lack of Unicode, and you want people to be able to cut and paste and/or import names as people want to spell them. On Mon, Aug 15, 2016 at 3:37 PM, Rich Shepard wrot

Re: Python 2 versus 3

Python 2 in general is reaching end of life. If you have the time to make the transition to Python 3 now, it will be significantly easier to maintain your installation (or any other python application) moving forward. ari On Mon, Sep 4, 2017 at 2:04 AM, BIJAL MANIAR wrote: > > Hi, > > I have cu

Re: Virtual Groups for learning Django

There seem to be a host of python-related slack groups. I am part of python-community.slack.org, which, I believe is connected to the Boston community. To answer the question at hand, there is djangoboston.slack.com which also holds monthly meetups in the Boston area. That could get you started
