Re: Django/Python vs Grails/Groovy

I'm not in a position to draw a comparison between the Grails and Django, but I would say that Django's package ecosystem, and in particular for your use case it's API frameworks, are really rather great.

Again, I've no idea how Grails compares, but Django TastyPie and Django REST framework are both excellent and could save you stacks of time.

Hey Guys,

We have an initial version of our product ready on Grails. However, before we move forward, we want to make a call between using Django or Grails. The product is basically an API and some templating. The team comprises of people who are comfortable with both frameworks and can easily make the switch from one to the other. Based on the research I've done online, I feel both frameworks are essentially the same. Groovy is just about as easy to develop in as python and ecosystem-wise Java doesn't have any advantage over Python (at least as far as the web is concerned). Also, Grails can do pretty much everything that Django can do (including schema migrations now which people seem to complain about earlier). Personally, I am a django guy and haven't developed a lot in Grails (just basic stuff). What would be some compelling arguments to switch to Django over grails or should we stick with grails?
