Jekyll or Django, or a hybrid?

  Not even close. That's like saying that the alternative to Photoshop is C++.

    That might be a bit harsh. Closer comparison might be photoshop to gimp?

      Jekyll is closer to Wordpress but Django is a library / framework so Photoshop to C++ is kinda close, but a little too far.

        I'm thinking "django cms", not just django - sorry. colleague of mine has been doing a lot of work in django cms the last year and I conflate the two sometimes :)
        • giancarlostoro 8y ago
          Ah makes more sense.
        • armandososa 8y ago
          Huh. Django cms actually looks pretty nice.
    • vonseel 8y ago
      Not really. Gimp is still an image editor. Django is your GUI/imaging framework and libraries if you’re going to make that comparison.

    Agreed. Django gives you the tools to build applications, wordpress is a point and click setup for most people. The users are extremely different audiences.
