HyperDjango

PyPI version Downloads License: MIT

Built by Charing Cross Capital

Build interactive Django apps without splitting your product into "backend API + SPA frontend".

HyperDjango keeps rendering and business logic on the server, then layers in partial swaps, signals, and transitions for SPA-like UX.

Documentation & Examples

For full API reference, guides, and interactive examples, please visit hyperdjango.charingcrosscapital.com.

Why This Works

  • Keep business logic in Django, not duplicated across REST + frontend app layers.
  • Get SPA-like interactions (partial swaps, toasts, transitions) with HTML as the transport.
  • Organize by feature using file-based routes and co-located templates/assets in a hyper/ directory.

Quick Start

pip install hyperdjango
python manage.py hyper_scaffold

See the Installation guide for details.

Example App

A full runnable demo lives in example/. See example/README.md for instructions.

Contributing

We welcome contributions. HyperDjango requires Python 3.13 or later. The project uses a PEP 735 dev dependency group (currently containing the test tools), not a dev optional extra, so pip install -e .[dev] is not valid.

Clone the repository and enter it:

git clone https://github.com/charingcrosscapital/hyperdjango.git
cd hyperdjango

With uv (recommended)

uv reads the committed lockfile and installs the project plus its development dependency group:

uv sync --group dev
uv run pytest

Browser integration tests

The end-to-end runtime suite uses the example project and requires Node.js 20 or later. Install its dependencies and Chromium, then run it from example/:

cd example
npm ci
npx playwright install chromium
npm run test:browser

With pip

Create a virtual environment, update to pip 25.1 or later, and install the editable project with its dev dependency group:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
python -m pip install -e . --group dev
pytest
