I'm not so sure about the 'including data in your template' section. It shows the regular way of adding context fields directly.

I found greater success and clarity with the @property and its cached brother @cached_property decorators. Using these two, you can access the view instance and its properties via just, e.g., 'view.foo' in the template.

@caches_property from what I understand is in fact originally a Django creation too (or at least its first popularising use https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/65344).

I think this is a great resource. The only comment I have is on the Thin Views chapter. Instead of attaching logic to the models, I like to make a services.py file in my app that has functions that satisfy all sorts of business logic.
