What is Django?
Django is a high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Created in 2005, Django follows the "batteries included" philosophy, providing everything needed to build web applications out of the box.
Django powers some of the world's largest websites including Instagram, Pinterest, and The Washington Post. It's known for its admin interface, ORM, security features, and comprehensive documentation.
