Django is a Python-based free and open-source web framework that follows the model-view-controller (MVC) architectural pattern (for the most part). It is maintained by the Django Software Foundation (DSF). Django's primary goal is to ease the creation of complex, database-driven websites. The framework emphasizes reusability and "pluggability" of components using less code and rapid development principles. Adrian Holovaty and Simon Willison developed Django in 2005. Today companies like USNews, Instagram, Disqus, Dropbox, Bitbucket and Udemy use Django.
