You can do a lot with Django templates. Sprinkle in any of these and I find it unlikely you'll be reaching for React. Although if you have lots of React experience I am a believer in "use what you know". Tool familiarity > trimming dependencies
- LordDragonfang 3y agoDjango templates are nice, but fall flat if you want to do anything remotely dynamic with your model. The fact that you need to define custom template tags for things as simple as getting an attribute from a dict in your model is a real pain point.

- LikeAnElephant 3y agoCompletely agree. I honestly always thought Django Templates mostly were Jinja2, until I looked more closely and realized how wrong I was. Since then I exclusively use Jinja2 in my Django apps and my life is so much better.
