The "contrib" add-ons
These docs are frozen for Django version 0.91. For current documentation, go here.
Django aims to follow Python's "batteries included" philosophy. It ships with a variety of extra, optional tools that solve common Web-development problems.
This code lives in django/contrib in the Django distribution. Here's a rundown of the packages in contrib:
admin
The automatic Django administrative interface. For more information, see Tutorial 3.
comments
A simple yet flexible comments system. This is not yet documented.
flatpages
A framework for managing simple "flat" HTML content in a database.
See the flatpages documentation.
markup
A collection of template filters that implement these common markup languages:
- Textile
- Markdown
- ReST (ReStructured Text)
syndication
A framework for generating syndication feeds, in RSS and Atom, quite easily.
See the syndication documentation.
Other add-ons
If you have an idea for functionality to include in contrib, let us know! Code it up, and post it to the django-users mailing list.
