Theres one option, geodjango could be better depending on our functionalities. KIV for now once you'll confirm the design on the wireframe.

SO seems to recommend geodjango for it's compatibility when building our database?

Problem is that geodjango could be overkill for what we need. And cause we're using the free tier we want to use as few non- crucial add ons as we can

I added the possibility in the google doc, but I think we should hold off on deciding this until we zero on functionality

Page loads but none of the page works.

Especially error on create page. Error: django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch: 'cities' is not a registered namespace. Probably related to this because demo project uses old django version
