folks aren't afraid of getting into the pudding. As people write more and more reuseable directives to share around, its going to become more and more powerful. On Sun, Jun 22, 2014 at 11:25 AM, Doug Snyder <webcoach...@gmail.com> wrote: > be sure to check out: django-angular > &l

I don't have a very specific answer for your question. I just started doing my django dev on OSX coming from Ubuntu My understanding is that Home Brew is a better solution than Mac Ports, I have heard some people being very critical of Mac Ports which I think was once the best solution for python

I think you'd at least want to use either a DecimalField or FloatField for the lat & long numbers. There's a nice GIS package in django called GeoDjango, it has lots of built in functionality for all kinds of geographical things. This may be over kill for your application but I thought I'd let you

I use an IDE called Aptana Studio 3 and like it. I can't say that I've tried a lot of IDEs and I tend to get more opinionated about programming languages and technologies than editors but when I got into Django I looked at some options and found Aptana to be the most full featured free and

Re: What to Django people have to say about Javascript frameworks to complement Django's philosophy on the front end

Another framework I looked at is SproutCore. This seems to be more focused around widgets like many javascript libraries have been before it. I'm not sure how extensible these widgets are and how quickly I would run into limitations of using them for things they weren't specifically designed for.
