Django Views: Functions, Classes, and Generics
summary
Explains how HTTP methods map to Django views with concrete code: shows code converting function to class and handling get post head options, demonstrates decorator_plus and the require-style shortcuts so function views get the same method handling as class views, links to GitHub and an IPython notebook and demos using tnet. Covers history, when generic class-based views save work, when shared behavior favors object views, and what actually changes when a view is extended.
