Django Brochure Websites
A lot of small businesses basically just need a “brochure” website, multiple pages consisting of contact information, advertising copy, testimonials, schedules, maps, etc. Currently I don’t know of any specific django app to easily do this (that meets the following requirements)
- Easy for endusers to update and edit (CMS with WYSIWYG editor, preferably usable with MS Word)
- Easy for endusers or developer to change templates (dbTemplates, good presets such as YUI or blueprint)?
- Easy to deploy on cheap shared hosting (Django already meets this requirement with flup and its FastCGI interface).
A simple brochure site using Django could probably be created using the following:
- Django Page CMS for the CMS part
- A Django Admin Widget like this one for editing pages
- And finally dbTemplates to allow for client-editable templates
