Django vs jQuery

Django started first, in 2005, 1 year before jQuery.

Why Django lasted

  • Batteries included is still a selling point after twenty years of microframeworks.
  • The admin, the ORM, and the security defaults are why news orgs and governments still start here.

Why jQuery lasted

  • It is still on a terrifying number of pages because WordPress plugins and old dashboards never die.
  • The $() brain is how a generation learned the DOM.
