Upload by lugxt

DJANGO 1.3 CHEATSHEET provides a compact reference for Django 1.3 model and admin development. It summarizes common model field options (null/blank/choices/default/validators, help_text, unique constraints, verbose names), core ORM field types (AutoField through URLField), upload and path-related parameters, QuerySet chaining methods, Model Meta options, relationships (ForeignKey, ManyToManyField, OneToOneField), lookup filters, and admin ModelAdmin options and callbacks for customizing list views, forms, permissions, and actions.
