I was a Python hater for a long time, although I cant really tell why. It didnt fit in my mind,
maybe. I was programming in BASIC, Pascal (none of these would come to my mind now, though), C,
PHP, Perl, JavaScript, and different shell “languages” like awk, sed or bash.
After I could not fit my next Symfony app on my cloud server (it is pretty low on storage), I have
decided to move slowly to Django. My first task was simple: transition my web page (this one)
from PHP + Symfony 2 to Python + Django. The results: the “static” pages are already working, the
blog listing is almost ready (some styling issues are still around), only tagging remains. And
this is after about 6 hours of work. Oh, and the admin site is included with Django, so I dont
have to port that. I have also decided to finally integrate a comment feature in the Django
version.
