With the release of Django 1.0, we're pleased to announce the release of a completely updated version of our highly popular Django Cheat Sheet which is crammed with a whole host of useful Django information.

Mercurytide would like to thank everyone who has contributed to making Django 1.0 such an awesome framework!

Here at Mercurytide we're lucky enough to work full-time with Django. We spend a fair amount of time looking at the online documentation because the same questions keep cropping up: "What options does that field take?"; "Is that template filter spelt with underscores?"; "Is there a template tag to do this?"; and so on.

We all know time spent looking at documentation is time spent not solving the world's problems through code. And no good programmer wants that. So we've created a two-page Django cheat sheet.

What's included

It was pretty tough to condense information about all Django's features onto just two A4 pages, but we've managed to include what we feel will be the most useful.

The cheat sheet covers Django version 1.0 and includes:

Templates

Template tags and their options

Template filters and their options

Date formatting syntax quick reference

Models

Fields and their options

Common field options

Meta class options

ModelAdmin options

Forms

Fields and their options

Common field options

Standard error_messages keys

Feedback

If you have any comments on the cheat sheet, please email us at info@mercurytide.co.uk. We welcome any ideas for improvements, corrections, or just some friendly Django-based banter.
