yourlabs / django-xcbv

UNUSABLE heavy research around cbv for the lulz, see crudlfap for usable code

What it is

• remove need of urls.py in favor of nested views,
• nested security checking support,
• take DRY to another level with nested views.
• django can you generate a menu is: yes,
• modern pattern for creating your own admin-like CRUD,

Extracted from CRUDLFA+, re DDD'd, under TDD.
