Actually, I already put together some code that works on node.js inspired by Django, have a look https://github.com/brokenseal/broke My original intention was to create a framework that would work seamlessly on the server and on the client side but it was just too much for me that I left that project aside to concentrate on the client side only with https://github.com/brokenseal/broke-client
I'm not asking help to start the project, I'm asking for help to make an already existing project a kick ass open source project with a community around it and I think that this is the right place since we all share Django love :) Il giorno mercoledì 2 maggio 2012 16:11:45 UTC+2, yati sagade ha scritto: > > I am a Django user, but I don't see anything wrong in a JS framework > inspired by Django.
