With just a few week's Django experience, I'm finding it straight-forward to integrate Dojo into my application. Django gives you all the tools you need to get the right bit of Javascript onto the page at the right time and its simplejson module makes short work of servicing AJAX requests. The only hoop I've had to jump through with AJAX is relearning the DOM - I have dabbled in DHTML previously, but the functionality I'm now implementing requires more than dabbling.
