SaaS Hammer

After 4 months, I finally launched my Django SaaS template.

Below are some features it provides:

Tailwind CSS

Bootstrap and Bulma seems a little outdated nowadays, so let's embrace Tailwind CSS.

Tailwind CSS is becoming more and more popular in the frontend community and there are large projects, and templates about it online.

With Tailwind CSS, we do not need to care about css naming in most cases, just write css name in the Django template to get things done.

If we want, we can still create some advanced css names based on Tailwind CSS.

Tailwind CSS helps us build style in a flexible way.

Hotwire

Hotwire (HTML OVER THE WIRE) is an alternative approach to building modern web applications without using much JavaScript by sending HTML instead of JSON over the wire.

It is already very popular in the Rails community and PHP community (Laravel, Symfony).

I wish to help people to use Hotwire enhance Server-rendered HTML, instead of spending much time to learn some heavy techs such as React.

Component library

Developers will also have a component library like Storybook, so they can:

1. Create reusable frontend components without touching Django View or Django model
2. Focus on Style and Javascript
3. Document the frontend component with Markdown
4. Makes it easier to test and maintain the reusable frontend components.

Wagtail CMS

Wagtail CMS is the TOP 1 CMS solution in Django community, it is flexible and powerful, developers can even customize the Wagtail admin UI to manage content in quick way.

SaaS Hammer already contains some page models, and developers can create blog, contact and other pages within 10 mins.

Curren SaaS templates in the Django community do not satisfy me.

I wish to provide a light and productive solution to people, let them getting things done in a quick way, without touching some heavy techs such as React.
