Re: html5 + Django

I suggest Nginx to serve your static files, and possibly also as a reverse proxy to point to your Django with Gunicorn/Apache setup (If you haven't considered Gunicorn as a production server yet, please do. It is fantastic).

It is much better to use Apache for static files than Django. You can still run DJango for data validation, but all static content is typically served via Apache. In your  virtualhost, you should proxy the /static/ endpoint to the /static/ folder in Django app.

Hi Everyone,

I'm working on a heavily animated web site using the html5 canvas tag.
Its mainly made of html, javascript and css static files and I'd like
to integrate the Google Identity Toolkit for an Oauth 2.0 account
chooser for signup and registration.

The first question is Django a good candidate for serving up mainly
static files and using a small Django app for authentication?

And secondly what performance impact would this have over straight
apache?

More info:

1. Static web files such as html, javascript and css are stored on
Amazon AWS S3
2. Data is loaded via oData using jsdata for animations
3. Amazon AWS EC2 is used to scale apache web servers

Thanks in advance.
