I am currently working on a project (or two) that utilizes both Flex 2 and Django (I christen thee “Flango”!)
In my view this is taking advantage of Django’s excellent framework, data model, admin interface, etc., while utilizing the power and components inherent in Flex 2 / Actionscript 3 / Flex Builder 2.
While I use Django for pretty much everything, I render pages/components using Flex 2 instead of the Django templates. Templates are used to instantiate the correct Flex .swfs, but outside of that it is completely Flex that handles the UI presentation.
I am very pleased with Django, and both it and Python are a pleasure to work/program with, and I’ve been utilizing DjangoAMF to bridge Flex and Django.
Much more on these technologies working together and apart in future posts.
