Django
Django is a high-level Python Web framework which follows the model–view–template (MVT) architectural pattern.
Installation
Install the python-django package. Documentation can be installed with the django-docsAUR package.
Database driver
There are different database backends available for Django:
- For a PostgreSQL backend install the python-psycopg2 package.
- If you intend to use a MySQL database as backend, install the python-mysqlclient package.
Usage
If you wish to start a Django project, use django-admin command
$ django-admin startproject mysite
This will create a mysite directory in your current directory. It will also create a manage.py script, which will let you interact with your project.
More information you will find in the official Django tutorial and Django documentation.
