I have recently been working on a new website for my wife, www.jesleephotos.com. It is currently a Joomla site, which I originally liked, but then I wanted to upgrade. Which meant rewriting some customizations. It was a long tedious thing. Then I started learning Django, and decided to completely write a new site for her in Django. So far it is going great, but it is taking time.
The thing I like about Django is complicated piece I think I need to do turns out to be a simple bit if Django. The ORM is great, the templates have almost everything I need, and the automatic admin site is a blessing! Why bother writing and designing my own admin section when it can be given to me for free. I need to override some bits of it, but the bulks done. That way I can concentrate on the main part of the site.
I have fallen for Django.
