Transcript

1. django-parler Easily translate "cheese omelet" into "omelette du fromage". Diederik van der Boor Django Meetup 13-11-2013
2. Simple Django model translations without nasty hacks with nice admin integration.
3. Got hopeful Making a CMS multilingual: Well, let's use something existing...
4. django-hvad: Cool idea, however:
5. django-hvad Overrides all ORM methods! Lots of metaclass magic Mixing {,/\ un}translated objects == hard Can't be combined with other apps (mptt, polymorphic, shop) Doesn't call super()
6. Package that! – Hack something directly in the CMS app – K.I.S.S – Manually create translated fields table – Manually assign descriptors – Hey that works!!
