Django project template for wq framework

This is the recommended Django project template for projects utilizing the wq framework. It uses wq.app for the front end and wq.db as the backend component. This template is meant to be used together with wq.create. See wq's Getting Started docs for more information.

When used with the --with-npm command for wq create, the app/ folder in this template will replaced with the contents of wq-vite-template (via @wq/create).

Rationale

This project template is also useful as an example of how to build a web app with React and a Django REST Framework backend. It differs from the default Django and vite templates in a few key ways:

  • Key front end files are kept in the app/ folder, making it easier to customize the generated installable PWA, and (optionally) to compile the front end with React Native or Expo for distribution on the app stores.
  • Because of this separation, the root of the Django project is in db/ rather than at the top level of the project.
  • The root ReactDOM.render() call and Redux initialization are handled automatically by @wq/react and @wq/store. It is not necessary to explicitly define any React components, except to override the default @wq/material UI.
  • A default Apache2 WSGI configuration is included in conf/
