Django is a python based web-framework. It can be found at http://www.djangoproject.com/.
In django, first you define your database models, which generate SQL for the database and allow django to know about the data. This is essential for the DRY concept. Next, the views are defined, this is where any business logic, interactions with the database and the like go. Then, the urls are defined as regular expression the map to views. Finally, templates are written, which are html (or anything composed of text) with data and simple data control sprinkled throughout.
