Django is very Pythonic. I mean, Django keeps all characteristics from the Python language. if you know Python, you don't have to "learn" the framework. when you try a new web framework you always have to learn something, but with django its not that hard ! > i.e. are there many predone components for this kind of thing which > can be utilised to speedup development time? A simple user register app can be made in 30 minutes in django or less. My experience says, that the harder part of a good public application is to build a good user interface and look and feel (js ). MY EXPERIENCE! Django will not interfere on it ! Have you hear about http://www.satchmoproject.com/ ? its a complete store may be its useful - http://www.packtpub.com/article/setting-up-complete-django-ecommerce-store-30-minutes and you will find more apps here: http://djangopackages.com/ and at github... litle apps to improve usability to your application. and lots of other apps to improve development speed. and a great community! > Also, is DJango scalable enough for a system of this sort, or should I > pick a competitor? Django has different ways to cache , that has been improved since version 0.96 (or earlier) Its very possible one of those will meet your needs. and then, look for a good server (nginx may be a choice) , to work with python. you have some options! :) --------------------------------- Cadu Leite -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
