What's Django And What Can You Do With It?

Django is a name I've been seeing a lot of lately, what exactly is it, and what is it good for? I know I could just look it up instead of asking, but what fun would that be? I gather it's for developing webpages with Python.. something I've never experimented much with.

Django is similar to Ruby on Rails but does its own thing. It is for designing websites, but not necessarily limited to content management. I had tried it out once, but i gave up on it. I guess i like "reinventing the wheel" when it comes to web development. Django is a good step forward to getting Python into web development, but it's not for me.

I'm on similar lines that of truefusion. Django is good framework and many people used it and some really hated it. I tried it once while i was trying yaml and some other frameworks. So after some time i give up on this framework. yaml is also good framework and if you're using google app engine then either django or yaml is all you need to know. I gave up with app engine after trying python and java wrappers. So i don't think i'm going to use django anytime soon.You can ask this question on stackoverflow if you want to get the idea of framework and people's opinion who are using it.
