I set it up in Windows, even got some REST endpoints working, both in a rather raw form as well as using Rest Framework[^], which is really cool.

It's interesting how working with Django for "a client", and the cruft that has been added to it, colored my view (no pun intended.) It amazes me the garbage that has been added to Django by a certain person I have to work with. We've been using Django 1.7, just upgraded to 1.9 (still one version behind), and still using Python 2.7. A very painful process because of all that cruft.

The irony is, I could probably rewrite, much more cleanly, everything that the current system does in a couple weeks, which has taken months of "cruft-work" of afformentioned someone else's time.

The docs on Django are, well, "decent", but really missing some good "how do I do this?" examples. SO and DjangoGirl to the rescue.

Learning to code with python is like learning to swim with those little arm floaties. It gives you undeserved confidence and will eventually drown you. - DangerBunny
