# gergely.polonkai.eu |
||||
|
||||
I have decided to rewrite my web site engine (http://gergely.polonkai.eu/ – currently in PHP with Symfony 2) in Python, using the [Django Framework](https://www.djangoproject.com/). |
||||
|
||||
## Nice. Why? |
||||
|
||||
See my [blog post](http://gergely.polonkai.eu/blog/2013/09/24/from-symfony-to-django-in-two-days.html) about it. However, the story is a bit more than this. |
||||
|
||||
* I am writing a C library using GLib and GObject |
||||
* for that, I have written some Python examples |
||||
* while testing “my” Python bindings, the Django Framework came into my mind, as I have already heard about it before while I was developing using Symfony 2 |
||||
* I took a look, then took a big breath |
||||
* I learned Python and Django in about 6 hours (no, I haven’t mastered either of them; just learned the basics) |
||||
* I’ve converted my old, heavyweight Symfony project (~250MB with the `vendors` folder) to Django (~60MB with all the required libraries) |
||||
|
||||
## I think you did this-or-that wrong |
||||
|
||||
As I said, I’m no Python expert, which means there may be stuff that is against best practice. If you point me out, I will be grateful! |
