django-tables2 VS whitenoise

How does this compare to https://github.com/jieter/django-tables2? That one makes it really easy to display database models with column sorting and pagination.

The degree of reusability (Thanks to things like GenericForeignKey and the ubiquity of Django Templates and Django ORM, there are tons of reusable components like django-filter or django-tables)

In Django there is django-tables2 for example, that creates html table from database query.

(eg. "Django apps" like django-filter and django-tables2, which rely on being a slice across the ORM, controller layer, and templating engine.)

From the readthedocs tutorial, A few examples:

I don't see how Axum would enable something like django-tables2 or django-filter which has is vertically integrated with Django's ORM, routing layer, and template system.

I've used actix-web for stuff... but I'm just sick of constantly reinventing the rote boilerplate that things like django-tables2 and django-filter generate for me once I've declared whatever customizations I want.

django-tables2 - like crispy forms but for tables, abstracts away the need to render tables in a template.

You can use whitenoise. https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise

We’ll use this library to serve our static admin files. I’m not going to go over all the configuration details here, but you can feel free follow them on your own. Make sure the static files are part of the Lambda package.

I'm trying to serve static files through WhiteNoise as per Heroku's recommendation. When I run collectstatic in my development environment, this happens:

Waitress - for serving your application easily (pairs very well with Whitenoise).

3) Caching static assets - both of static assets. So maybe try deploying a Django app in a production environment and cache the static assets. You could put them behind a service like Cloudflare which will take care of that for you, or have a look at something like [Whitenoise](https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise) which will add the correct HTTP headers for you. You can spend some time reading about HTTP Caching headers and even try writing a simple middleware which caches certain requests to your Django app (just for learning purposes).

FWIW, I always use Whitenoise to serve Static files when I use Heroku, and only keep Media files on AWS. It works well.

In the beginning of the project, I chose Google Cloud Platform as the "Cloud Provider". But for simplicity and easy to use I switched to WhiteNoise to serve staticfiles.
