guys can anyone give me advice?, should i learn django first then learn something like flask? or learn flask right away? this is my first time learning web dev, i already know python, SQL and basic front end
>>61225421
Learning Django first is a pretty good idea, if you are looking for a job
>>61225490
yeah from what i've seen django is pretty cool but i kinda want to write my own sql instead of using ORM but im not sure if its worth the trouble
>>61225545
You can run raw queries in most backend frameworks.

What I have trouble with is reusing and styling Django generic login view. That made me quit.
>>61226009
what do you use now?
>>61226009
You know, you DON'T have to use Django's login view at all if you want to. Just make a form in in your forms.py for your app and extend the form class to be a Model form for User or whatever handrolled powder keg you got going.
Styling forms is kinda bitchy though. You have to do something like:class CreateUser(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ('username','password','email','first_name','last_name')
widgets = {
"username":forms.TextInput(attrs={"required":True,"placeholder":"Username","class":"yourclasshere"}),
"password":forms.PasswordInput(attrs={"required":True,"placeholder":"Enter your Password","class":"sitefont2 fontcolor1 fontcompshadow fontsizemidsmall fontcenter forminput glassback"}),
}
to style inputs directly.

Does anyone have a solution to this?
