11 years of Django

I started building my first Django app during an internship in January 2014. To the best of my knowledge that first app used Django v1.6.1.

Since then I've used Django to build a number of small projects for fun, some larger projects used by others like Prism and even some apps I was paid to build.

Django is my go-to when I want to spin up a web app; I know it well, have plenty of templates to get me going quickly and it's Python!

Django has had many improvements since I've started using it - that first project was using South for migrations! One of my recent favourites being the introduction of the Login Required Middleware - something I've previously written myself for several projects to ensure views weren't inadvertently left exposed!
