django-amp-tools ( amp_tools ) provides a simple way to work with Accelerated mobile pages (AMP) in django and gives you tools at your hand to render some different templates to deliver an AMP version of your site to the user.
The initial idea, which has guided the development of this application from django-mobile app, is to keep your views exactly the same but to transparently interchange the templates used to render a response.
This is done in two steps:
- A middleware determines the client's preference to view your site. E.g. if he wants to use the AMP or the standart version.
- The template loader takes then care of choosing the correct templates based on the GET param detected in the middleware.
