By removing the 'supported' keyword from the detection methods and only relying on a cached settings.LANGUAGES, the speed of said methods has been improved; around 4x raw performance. This allows us to stop checking Python's incomplete list of locales, and rely on a less restrictive regular expression for accepting certain locales. HTTP Accept-Language is defined as being case-insensitive, based on this fact extra performance improvements have been made; it wouldn't make sense to check for case differences.
Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Thanks for checking it out.
All documentation is in the "docs" directory and online at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/. If you're just getting started, here's how we recommend you read the docs:
- First, read docs/intro/install.txt for instructions on installing Django.
- Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/intro/tutorial01.txt, docs/intro/tutorial02.txt, etc.).
- If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read docs/howto/deployment/index.txt for instructions.
- You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in docs/topics) next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in docs/howto) for specific problems, and check out the reference (docs/ref) for gory details.
- See docs/README for instructions on building an HTML version of the docs.
Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think they should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a ticket here: https://code.djangoproject.com/newticket
