Up to now, I’ve been using Flex for my client side and having Django return xml for the last 2 years. With Adobe’s policy changes regarding Flex support, I need to shift future efforts to HTML5. I’m seeking some general advice from the group on basic technology/techniques. My specific question is…
Swapping xml output from Django for JSON output should be pretty straightforward, I guess. And you can feed the JSON to your brand new html5+javascript front-end. If you're comfortable with javascript, this could be pretty similar in nature to your current setup.
When looking at the Django templating features vs using a tool like CS5.5 or expression blend, what advice would you offer deciding how much to put into the template logic and how much to do via AJAX/Javascript/Jquery? My applications are generally 10 to 30 pages and I have a 10% commonality between applications.
I blogged about the ajax/template split regarding Django a couple of days ago and got some helpful comments. Perhaps some of them give you some additional feel for the matter:
