I’ll admit to liking Django, but I don’t use it in every project. I don’t think Django has dominated the Python community to the extent to which rails has dominated the ruby community. For example Serverless applications, ML, the scientific community, and shell scripting all use Python without Django, and they’re pretty popular uses of the language. Also FastAPI appears to be doing pretty well
- stonecharioteer 5y agoSure, Django doesn't have that level of presence, but most of the tech companies I've interviewed with, especially startups, default to using Django alone, and being so rigid in their practices that they believe Django is everything. At my company, my colleagues only know Django or they write horrendous Python. I'm constantly doing my best to show them how to write production-grade python code without having to rely on Django - Airflow DAGs for example, but sadly, they seem uninterested - which is something I have realized I cannot fix. It's just a job, so at the end of the day I've to let go. It's odd though, how unreadable Python code can end up being if you don't bother caring about how you write code.
