Django Model-View-Controller architecture example

Django Model-View-Controller architecture example

"""
jQuery templates use constructs like:
    {{if condition}} print something{{/if}}
Or like:
    {% if condition %} print {%=object.something %}{% endif %}
This, of course, completely screws up Django templates,
because Django thinks {{ and }} mean something.
Wrap {% verbatim %} and {% endverbatim %} around those
blocks of jQuery templates and this will try its best
to output the contents with no changes.
