Re: Searching on the server

 

Slightly off but my advice is not to go with Django. It was a clever
framework (does things ahead of time, like orm) and has some unique
features, but it's components are not standard and it is a bit
glued-together. Rather go with standard libraries (which you can use in any
(non-web) projects)!
