What makes you think Django is terrible
- junon 5y agoI worked with it exclusively for a year. Its ORM is magic, its performance is terrible, its configuration is cryptic at best, its handler system is worse than just writing your own. Everything about Django is terrible.
- boxed 5y agoI worked with it 10 years. The ORM is pretty trivially understandable and not magic at all. The configuration is pretty straight forward and we'll documented. The url routing is pretty good although it could be improved. It's a lot better than flask when you go beyond an MVP at least.
- junon 5y agoSorry, but creating reverse reference fields at runtime that can't be statically checked or enumerated is 100% magic.
- _throwawayaway 5y agoWould you mind pointing to the example of a system with less or no magic?
- boxed 5y agoYou mean of the models? But those are literally created at import time. That's as close to "statically" as things get with python really (except the text of the code).
