How to transition from PHP to Python Django?
- by ggfan
Here's my background:
Decent experience with PHP/MySql.
Beginner's experience with OOP
Why I want to learn Python Django?
I gave in, based on many searches on SO and reading over some of the answers, Python is a great, clean, and structured language to learn. And with the framework Django, it's easier to write codes that are shorter than with PHP
Questions
Can i do everything in Django as in PHP?
Is Django a "big" hit in web development as PHP? I know Python is a
great general-purpose language but I'm
focused on web development and would
like to know how Django ranks in terms
of web development.
