The internet is powered by RESTful APIs. With the combination of the Django web framework and Django REST Framework, software developers can build robust web APIs in the Python programming language with a minimal amount of code.
Django's website seems good but for some reason I couldn't find where to download the documentation:
(Yes, I need the docs for 1.1)
Does anyone know?

Django's documentation is built using Sphinx and included in their source tree.
From a checked-out copy of Django's source, just run

in the docs directory. You can find instructions for getting the source here: http://www.djangoproject.com/download/ Fps maker free download android.9,55811 gold badge3636 silver badges4040 bronze badges

'Okay, I just did it manually using sphinx-build. It was a pretty bad experience.'
Hmm. I just tried and it was a pretty smooth experience (and I have never done this before). Here's the Linux recipe:
- 'cd' to the directory where your Django 1.2.x download has been extracted (in my case '~/downloads/Django-1.2.1')
- cd docs
- make latex PAPER=a4
- cd _build/latex
- make all-pdf
And the end result is 1000 page tome of Django goodness!

In the bottom of right sidebar there are links to zipped HTML version, PDF version and ePub version.

To generate PDF version in Ubuntu, you need to download 700-900 MB of Latex packages.Even if you are not in a developing country, keeping a local copy of docs is useful. Just in case the Django site is down or when you need to refer to something while traveling.Django docs are written in ReStructuredText (RST) and you need Sphinx tool to generate HTML versionhttp://sramana.github.com/dod/
