So I need to make a confession, Django is not really passing the reality test for me.
I just want to create a website. a big and full website, not a framework in my local machine that every time I need to add something to it I need to update the code, really Django WTF! In WordPress all I need to do is install and play with some plugins.
It all started with my love to python which is a really, the best programing language I can use for just about anything. but when I want to create a Website it fails me time and time again. I don’t even know where to start explaining the wasted hours trying to figure out in the IDE why Django is so empty and how do I add the really basic stuff that a Website should have like login page or just, a page.
In WordPress not only do I get those things out of the box. I get a backup manager, A Post design manager, SEO manager, and a dashboard to look for more plugins than I can count. Everything is so easy and fun, only when I want to create a complex behavior I need to write my own code in a plugin that I can easily share with others.
The only thing I don’t like about WordPress is the PHP part, Why O’ Why can’t I Write Python code in my word press, Scratch that, I can! there is a plugin just for that By Pete Dring, which is really all I needed.
FYI. I still use Django as a wrapper to this WP site, I like it that way.
