Django on Python 3 almost there
- dhaivatpandya 15y agoI've stopped caring about Python 3... PyPy seems like a much more viable platform. Even though we all hate Java for it, Java has never had any of these "deprecation" issues and language "jumps"
- FraaJad 15y agoPyPy is an alternate implementation and not a replacement for Python 3. PyPy does not have Py3 (yet) because they are trying to improve the Py2 branch to the fullest first with the available funding. PyPy project are taking donations to the Py3K effort here: http://pypy.org/py3donate.html http://pypy.org/py3donate.html
- kbd 15y agoEven if you've "stopped caring about Python 3" and favor PyPy, the PyPy developers themselves care about Python 3 support and are working to get there. Language != implementation. Everyone, including the PyPy developers, view Python 3 (the language, if not CPython the implementation) as the future of Python. Also, I'm not sure why Java is related, but what's your point?
- grovulent 15y agoProjects like this are necessary before any sort of critical mass can be reached. It's got to get to the point where the costs of moving over the python3 are minimal. Even when I'm not building a web app - I'll often work in the django environment because of the many handy libraries it has built in. This has meant that Python3 has been a complete non-starter for me. So props to Vinay for the work.
