Hi ya,I wonder if Django has any gui-frameworks which give common solutions for handling frontend data, p.e. in combination with Twitter Bootstrap?Some time ago I had a look at the YII PHP Framework and they have a great solution called Yiibooster (check it out at http://yiibooster.clevertech.biz/jsonGridView).Yiibooster offers a lot of widgets - all in one framework.Is there anything like this for django?
Your question highlights that you've missed an important point.
Django is fundamentally a server-side framework. That means it mostly handles database requests, HTTP requests, cookies, and so on. At the end of the day, it's a big function for turning "http://example.com/mypage" into "<html>...".
What you put *inside* the <html> is entirely up to you. You want to use bootstrap? Use bootstrap. You want to use Zurb Foundation? Use Zurb Foundation. You want to use JQueryUI? Use JQueryUI? Want to use all three? Use all three.
Django doesn't care *what* you render to the client - it provides a template language to make it easy to render whatever you want.
So - at it's core, your question doesn't make sense. No, Django doesn't provide support for handling frontend data - because you can use whatever frontend solution you want.
That said, there are some ways that third party developers have been able to make it *easier* to use frontend tools with Django, by doing things like providing template tags to render frontend widgets, and providing Django REST framework configurations to support specific AJAX callback formats. These usually come in the form of third party libraries, which you can generally find by Googling for "Django <name of frontend framework>". I don't have any specific recommendations for good ones, but Django Packages [1] might give you some guidance.
