#22Before Django the gold standard for Python web apps was Zope. What a tremendous achievement by the Django team!
Zope? Now, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time... A long time. I wonder of this magnificent monstrosity is still alive?
I was just reading this last week talking about zope.interface

There’s nothing wrong with PHP. And Laravel is very popular for good reasons.
There are people out there writing Python just as bad as what you think of as bad PHP.
One dev I knew insisted everything must be a list comprehension — including all for loops in regular flow control. That was Not Good(tm).

There's more choice in the flask ecosystem, but then again, you can suffer from poor choices and a lack of architectural consistency.
I'd say the big thing is SqlAlchemy for Rel DB. and Maybe alembic to compliment.

By that logic: there are people "out there" jamming pencils up their noses, therefore a shovel is just as good a writing implement as a pencil..

I owe a lot to Django as it was really the thing that got me into backend programming by leading me to learn python in early 1.X days. My first real programming job was backend django programming for a newspaper. Eventually things shifted towards django-rest-framework, flask, and now my go-to Starlette. Haven't used Django in some time but really appreciate the project and happy to see it moving along.
Same here. Django 0.96 at the Washington Post.
I start a new job next week at a Django shop after a couple years of JS and Go. I look forward to getting back to it but I will miss Go. :)

#28Congratulations to the Django project and contributors on a big LTS release. And a huge thank you for the consistently excellent framework that so many have built their web dev careers on. I'll post this as a Show HN soon, but I'll mention it now as a soft-launch introduction. After a decade of using Django I started a project I always wanted to exist: backported security and bug fixes to old versions that the Django…
> It's free for personal use and a paid subscription for businesses and organizations. This is awesome.
Thanks :)
I also want to experiment with reduced pricing for non-profits, but first have to get the basics down and ship the free and enterprise versions.
And then pay back a huge debt to Django with code contributions and corporate sponsorship.
