Description

Ref Improvements:

  • Documentation moved to /ref/class-based-views/ directory.
  • Method Resolution Order (MRO) on most views.
  • Method flowchart added to many views.
  • Mixins moved to their own pages.
  • Mixins demonstrate which other Mixins they extend.
  • Autodoc added to all views and mixins.
    • Because the Django code does always not contain docstrings, or it is not complete, there remains in many cases the old manual documentation.
    • 'Note' statements placed whenever autodoc is in addition to manual documentation.

Topic Improvements:

  • Documentation moved to /topics/class-based-views/ directory.
  • Cleaner explanation including additional examples.
  • More examples.
  • Mixins moved to their own pages.
  • Very clean mixin documentation with advocacy for best practices.
