I'm trying to learn Django. And need something to go beyond Hello world and Polls tutorial. Could you please recomend any real project written in Django? Tried to search, but found not many. Especialy interested in usage of buildout.
Here are six open-source codebases, built in Django, which you can read and learn from. Let’s start with the “real-world” app. It’s part of a really cool project! The RealWorld project specifies an API, and there are implementation of both API clients and API servers in many languages and frameworks.
There's also a ton of Django projects on Google Code, GitHub, and BitBucket. Just search for "django". Django-CMS, mentioned above, and Fein-CMS are both good CMS projects to dive into, and the screencasts by Eric are terrific - I absolutely suggest any noob to Django watch all 13 of those screencasts. Show activity on this post.
This article presents a short-list of open-source Django Templates that cover some hot topics like UI frameworks integration, render information in charts and data tables, and customize the default Django admin interface for a nicer UI/UX, authentication, deployment and best practices regarding a project structure.
The modules can also be used to create apps and websites from external sources, thus speeding up the development process. Q. Is Django good for small projects? A. Though you can experiment with Django for beginner-level projects for learning purposes, Django isn’t suitable for basic apps as it is pretty complex.
My project, Open Knesset, is a django based project that uses data scraped from the israeli parliament (the knesset), analyses it, and presents it to users in more friendly and informative ways.
We use buildout.
The main repo is here in github.
Another place you should look at is djangosites.org, they have a list of django powered sites with source code available.
