So Django stands in my way and its' advantage is that it is easy the work around it?
- kej 10y agoMore like, every framework will sometimes get in your way, but it's easier to work around Django when needed than some others.
- tedmiston 10y agoNo, I think you're misinterpreting the comment. Django guides you the right way and how it guides you works most of the time. However, when you do hit the edge, Django's very well written docs and thoughtfully designed architecture guide you in building around its limitations. For example, if you want to swap in Jinja over Django templates or SQLAlchemy over Django ORM. Really needing to do so is still the exception to the norm, but just know that Django does more here than most other frameworks. If you are interested in understanding this a little deeper, I highly recommend picking up the Two Scoops book [1].

- idw 10y agoI second the Two Scoops book. Django documentation is excellent (try the tutorial if you want a quick sense of django). Two Scoops help you understand why to do things in particular ways and make good design choices within all the things django can do.
