<!--header-end-->
<!--intro-start-->

Django-IDOM connects your Python project to a ReactJS front-end, allowing you to create **interactive websites without needing JavaScript!**

Following ReactJS styling, web elements are combined into [reusable "components"](https://idom-docs.herokuapp.com/docs/guides/creating-interfaces/your-first-components/index.html#parametrizing-components). These components can utilize [hooks](https://idom-docs.herokuapp.com/docs/reference/hooks-api.html) and [events](https://idom-docs.herokuapp.com/docs/guides/adding-interactivity/responding-to-events/index.html#async-event-handlers) to create infinitely complex web pages.

When needed, IDOM can [use components directly from NPM](https://idom-docs.herokuapp.com/docs/guides/escape-hatches/javascript-components.html#dynamically-loaded-components). For additional flexibility, components can also be [fully developed in JavaScript](https://idom-docs.herokuapp.com/docs/guides/escape-hatches/javascript-components.html#custom-javascript-components).

Any Python web framework with Websockets can support IDOM. See below for what frameworks are supported out of the box.

| Supported Frameworks | Supported Frameworks (External) |
| --- | --- |
| [`Flask`, `FastAPI`, `Sanic`, `Tornado`](https://idom-docs.herokuapp.com/docs/guides/getting-started/installing-idom.html#officially-supported-servers) | [`Django`](https://github.com/idom-team/django-idom), [`Plotly-Dash`](https://github.com/idom-team/idom-dash), [`Jupyter`](https://github.com/idom-team/idom-jupyter) |

# At a Glance

## `my_app/components.py`

<!--py-header-start-->

You will need a file to define your [IDOM](https://github.com/idom-team/idom) components. We recommend creating a `components.py` file within your chosen **Django app** to start out. Within this file, we will create a simple `hello_world` component.

<!--py-header-end-->
<!--py-code-start-->

```python
from idom import component, html

@component
def hello_world(recipient: str):
    return html.h1(f"Hello {recipient}!")
```

<!--py-code-end-->

## [`my_app/templates/my-template.html`](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/templates/)

<!--html-header-start-->

In your **Django app**'s HTML template, you can now embed your IDOM component using the `component` template tag. Within this tag, you will need to type in your dotted path to the component function as the first argument.

Additionally, you can pass in `args` and `kwargs` into your component function. For example, after reading the code below, pay attention to how the function definition for `hello_world` (_in the previous example_) accepts a `recipient` argument.

<!--html-header-end-->
<!--html-code-start-->

```jinja
{% load idom %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <body>
    {% component "example_project.my_app.components.hello_world" recipient="World" %}
  </body>
</html>
```
