This is a really great looking service. I couldn't find a contact form that wasn't for sales inquiries, but I thought you might like to know that your website is extremely buggy on my phone (iPhone 5s, iOS 9.0.2, Mobile Safari). T

Enlive and related libraries for Clojure, Lift for Scala, and heist for Haskell use node transformation. I know that there are a few others I'm forgetting. Basically given a fragment of an HTML 5 or XML document, your view functions tr

I'm teaching my kids how to program using the 2nd edition because it's the introduction to programming that I always wish I had received. They love it! Thanks.

This article contains so many elements of a Borges story that by the second paragraph I assumed I was reading a work of fiction. Upon further reflection, it seems plain that, while every word of it is without doubt true, the story is a hoax

Indeed. Not being familiar with that particular passage, my thought would be that he means, his uncle does not consider the status-signaling property of "beautiful" (and expensive) property to have any utility. This seems in line

What a strange fit of pique. I make extensive use emacs chords to navigate in the shell, and I show them to people all the time if they seem curious. It never occurred to me to be outraged if somebody didn't already know. I suppose I o

Wagtail's authoring interface and Django's admin coexist. I believe the demo sets up the Wagtail interface at /admin and puts the standard admin at /django-admin. Presumably you can change those in your urls.py to whatev

It's not like django-cms or various PHP-based CMS (Conrete5 comes to mind) where a template defines "slots" into which an administrator can drop different type of content widgets. In spirit, it's much more like Mezzanine

The most striking similarity is the template syntax, it uses an Erlang implementation of Django templates. I think it draws some inspiration from Django's "batteries included" philosophy in a couple of ways. It encourages dev

It sounds like you are comparing Zotonic to Django in an apples-to-apples sort of way, so I'm not sure why you don't consider it to be a framework. I think that it's definitely a framework as much as Django is, it just happen

Great, that's what I was hoping. The client is planning to stick with iOS devices so I may not test much cross-browser, but it's good to know we'll have options. Again, thanks for this and I hope I can find a way to contribut

Neat. In working with Angular it has definitely seemed that it is particularly well suited to building single-purpose form-based apps (because building really simple things in Angular is shockingly easy). I've had a few ideas like this
