This conference talk explores the renaissance of Django forms in modern web development, highlighting recent improvements in built-in form templating and rendering. Learn how to create dynamic, interactive, and responsive forms using Django's native capabilities with minimal JavaScript. Josh Thomas demonstrates how the shift toward HTML-centric approaches (using technologies like HTMX, Unpoly.js, Alpine.js, and Tailwind CSS) complements Django's form capabilities, allowing developers to build maintainable, responsive, and accessible forms without heavy JavaScript frameworks. The presentation covers template-based form rendering, styling with modern CSS, adding dynamic behavior with minimal JavaScript, implementing inline validation with AJAX, and evaluating third-party Django form packages. Suitable for anyone with basic Django knowledge, this talk includes practical demonstrations and equips attendees with the knowledge to implement modern Django forms effectively in their projects.
