I've been playing around with using Django as a web services tier with REST. I've been reading a lot about ROA architecture and it makes a heck of a lot of sense. I am impressed with the out-of-the-box features Django has to make it easy. To put it simply ... I could not believe transformation was this easy:
Boom! It's xml. Want to use JSON instead?
Done. I assumed that the transformation would be the hardest part. But the transformations (in both directions) are painless. Yay Django!
digg it
seed it
