Thank you for the suggestion. I'm not sure that section of the docs has been touched in 5+ years. The things I didn't like about django-ajax-selects
were things that were true some 5 or more years ago, in particular there was no Django library built around supporting jQuery UI's autocomplete. At the time was one of the few supported JS autocomplete libraries/plugins. Now there are many autocomplete JS plugins, far too many to keep up with (typeahead, select2, awesomplete, complete.ly). If anything I'd rather remove any comments about things I don't like about the other people's work.
Hi,
This is really more of a request for additional documentation (or opinion). In the "Related projects" section of the overview.rst file the 'django-ajax-selects' project is mentioned as inspiration for 'django-selectable' but there is no commentary on the strengths/weaknesses of either. This is despite the statement that there are things to like and to not like about 'django-ajax-selects'.
I'm trying to decide which of the three main contenders in this space to use, and it would be great if the 'like/dislike' mentioned would be expanded into something that could help people decide.
As far as I can tell, the three main contenders from the Django Packages grid for 'auto-complete' are:
Anyway, just a suggestion. Cheers, Andrew
