    I set it up in Windows, even got some REST endpoints working, both in a rather raw form as well as using Rest Framework[^], which is really cool. It's interesting how working with Django for "a client", and the cruft that has been added to it, colored my view (no pun intended.) It amazes me the garbage that has been added to Django by a certain person I have to work with. We've been using Django 1.7, just upgraded to 1.9 (still one version behind), and still using Python 2.7. A very painful process because of all that cruft. The irony is, I could probably rewrite, much more cleanly, everything that the current system does in a couple weeks, which has taken months of "cruft-work" of afformentioned someone else's time. The docs on Django are, well, "decent", but really missing some good "how do I do this?" examples. SO and DjangoGirl to the rescue. Marc

                I liked it too[^]

                If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

                  Paraphrased from "Good Morning Vietnam": (DJango pronounced as 'D-jang-o') "Django, Django, get a rope and hang-o."

                      I'm about to implement it on my Pi today, and have recently played with it on Windows. Not only did it impress me a lot, but also introduced me to PostgreSql, which also impresses me a lot. One of the things I really liked were the really informative, automatically activated, error pages. Like books vs wet paint compared to the Yellow Screen of Death, turned on for dev. I should really try develop a dev error page with 1/100th of the info the Django one gives. And, Jade looks like it has some potential as a view engine.
