Dynamic template loader with TemplateResponse

I have some legacy code that I used to dynamically load a template based on url if it exists and render a 404 if it doesn't exist. def content(request, template_name='index'): try: return direct_to_template(request, '%s.html' % template_name) except TemplateDoesNotExist:

This is a tough question for sure. If you prefer Ruby syntax, then to me it seems clear. If it feels clunky, it won't flow properly and you won't code as well. Then again, you point out that you built a finished product quickly and you're happy with it compared to what you built with Rails.
