django-template-oxide

A Rust implementation of Django's template engine. Add it as a TEMPLATES backend and your templates render through Rust instead of Python, with the same output, the same exceptions, and the same error messages as stock Django.

It passes 1529 of Django 6.1's own 1530 template_tests (one is skipped on case-insensitive file systems), plus a parity suite that renders every built-in filter, tag, lookup, and localization case through both engines and requires identical results.

This project was pair-built with Claude. See the docs for what that means for the code.

Install

pip install django-template-oxide

Requires Python 3.14+ and Django 6.0+. Wheels are published for Linux (x86_64 and arm64) and macOS (Apple Silicon), for both the regular and free-threaded builds of CPython 3.14. See Installing to build from source.

Use

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        "BACKEND": "django_template_oxide.backend.OxideTemplates",
        "DIRS": [...],
        "APP_DIRS": True,
        "OPTIONS": {...},
    },
]

Nothing else changes: render, get_template, {% extends %}, {% include %}, and custom tag libraries work as before.

Performance

Mean time per render or compile. Smaller is better.
