>Python is a language that gives us a lot of liberty in how we solve problems, but Django is a set of cookie cutters for doing things a certain way.

Actually a core tenet of Python is: "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it".

So Django couldn't be more Pythonic in this regard.

Then there is only 1 Python framework? Dumb comment. I was talking about architectures not syntax.

"Dumb comment" isn't the kind of language HN prefers.

No, there are several. But all of them should strive to be Pythonic, including in the sense of offering "one, and preferably only one, obvious way to do something".

>Dumb comment.

Oh, the irony.

>I was talking about architectures not syntax.

And the Zen of Python is about architecture and APIs too, not just the syntax of the language. They are generic guidelines about how to write Pythonic programs.
