Another point is one made by Alex Gaynor at PyCon 2012. Too often, people ask "How do I do X in Django," when they should be asking "How do I do X in Python," or "Does Django have something for X."
The first question is too limiting. Remember that Django is just some Python code. The second question expands your thinking. Is there any Python library out there that does what I want? If not, should I write one? The third question is good because it may prevent you from re-inventing the wheel. If Django *does* have something that does what you want, you may as well use it. But if not, you're far from stuck. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
