Where can I download a sample Django template?

Question

I just started working at a place as a front end developer where I need to build Django templates. I never worked with these before, does anyone know where I can download a sample template so I can look through the code structure?

I won't be doing any application development using the Django framework, only taking the variables the developer gives me and incorporating the in the html/css templates I build.

Answer 1

There are lots of Open Source django apps that you could look at for inspiration. One example is Zinnia which is a blogging application - there are dozens of templates in this project, see this directory . There are many other open source django projects on http://github.com and http://bitbucket.org

You should also take a look at the official template documentation , there are lots of snippets there that are very useful.
