Random OSCON Tidbits

Some things I learned about at the Django/Python meetup in downtown Portland during OSCON:

  • JS Bridge: a Python to Javascript bridge for all Mozilla applications, still under very active development (i.e., changing daily).
  • 960.gs: a grid framework for Javascript (replacing Blueprint CSS) with a naming scheme that makes prototyping designs a lot less painful.
  • Dojo has Django Templates: I take my eye off Dojo for a year and it suddenly grows the ability to have full Django templates in the browser. Holy CRAP.

The Django template integration is actually really nice, and Neil has done a great job with it. It ties into "dojo.data" - which means the same data-binding that the grid/charting/filtering/etc uses can be used in the templates. Making it trivial to iterate and produce DOM structures (hell, it can't get much more complicated than document.createElement() and friends).
