Django features¶
SquaresDB is based on the Django web framework, which has a variety of features. Notes about features we should consider using in the future are scattered throughout the code (for example as TODO(django-3.2) and in the bugtracker, but also sometimes below.
Features that may be useful¶
Async support – realistically, we’re probably not perf sensitive enough to care (plus our blocking IO is all(?) DB access, and the ORM is still sync-only), but it’s neat
The admin display decorator might simplify a nice-looking admin
It looks like maybe Python now has builtin timezone info?
