Django (pronounced /?d?æ??o?/ JANG-goh) is an open source web
application framework, written in Python, which follows the
model-view-controller architectural pattern. It was originally
developed to manage several news-oriented sites for The World
Company of Lawrence, Kansas, and was released publicly under a
BSD license in July 2005; the framework was named after gypsy
jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. In June 2008 it was announced
that a newly formed Django Software Foundation will take care of
Django in the future. Django’s primary goal is to ease the
creation of complex, database-driven websites. Django emphasizes
reusability and “pluggability” of components, rapid development,
and the principle of DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself). Python is used
throughout, even for settings, files, and data models. Django
also provides an optional administrative CRUD (create, read,
update and delete) interface that is generated dynamically
through introspection and configured via admin models. View
