Django-unicorn Alternatives

Reviews and mentions

• Should I ditch using Django
  reddit.com/r/startups | 2021-10-16

  As an additional advice, I would check the Django subreddit and ask what are they doing for their front-end needs (e.g. check this one) -> you don't have to use JS for front-end (e.g. check htmx, unicorn, etc).

• Does nyone else think Django is better off with it's own template rendering than with other frontends like Vue, React etc?
  reddit.com/r/django | 2021-10-14

  In a recent project of mine, I wanted to implement few dynamic components, and i really didn't wanted to have a rest arch for this project as i didn't see any strong need for that, In such cases I think something like django unicorn is a really strong contender, as it avoids the pain of writing a separate base for frontend as well as code duplication and redundancy in writing ajax's and templates.

  At the beginning of the pandemic I was pretty restless and bored, so I started working on a fullstack framework for Django named Unicorn (read more details in the Django Unicorn series). After putting in a ton of work building out the functionality, writing documentation, creating example code, and recording screenshares I enabled GitHub Sponsors on a lark.

• Django Reactor
  reddit.com/r/django | 2021-03-19

  I find https://www.django-unicorn.com/ way more mature and prod ready than reactor. I also would like to experiment more with https://htmx.org/ and django.

• Cleanest way to pass a model ID to an AJAX call?
  reddit.com/r/djangolearning | 2021-03-18

  I tend to have a JS function like https://github.com/adamghill/django-unicorn/blob/master/django_unicorn/static/js/utils.js#L64 which grabs the CSRF token in all of my projects. I wish there was a cleaner way, but I don’t know of one.

  I've also been working on https://www.django-unicorn.com/ which enables this sort of functionality and is integrated tightly with Django in case you want to try it out!
