Re: Choosing a JS framework to go together with Django

The idea is to generate pure HTML views for non JS clients like search bots. If your view depends on AJAX calls, then it defies the purpose.

I've been developing native mobile apps for the past year, so I get your argument about providing REST end points for your data.

The point of my original post was to NOT do two different views; one for search bots and one for browsers.

 I agree that providing a REST interface is the "right" way to provide data for both browsers and mobile apps. To that end, the project I was suppose to work on, used tastypie.

Hi ,

Why not using REST for serving your data to the Front End app, it can be from mobile app or just web app with HTML + javascript.

With that you don't need to worry about redo the template side in django and in your front end js app.

With REST serving JSON, no template / html needed for the response.

You can use Tastypie or Django rest framework which still using Django engine . This way also your application server no need to rendering the HTML view in every request from the first time.

Any front end will be able to process the JSON with javascript.

In the end, my project stalled due to lack of resources. We might pick it up but it's been abandoned for quite some time. I haven't had any django projects since. Hence, I can't make any recommendations.

DjangoAjax looks promising but might lack the community support you expect. It is however based on jQuery and ASP.NET MVC, so if you can see past the M$ cruft, some guides etc are available.
