I've used Django to develop many different projects over the years. Within our team, I focus mostly on the back-end aspect of things (i.e. designing models, managing model migrations, writing views/urls, writing custom middleware, as well as any custom template tags/filters we might need). Pretty much everything except writing html/css for templates. <3 Django documentation. I sometimes read it on the toilet.

Started learning Python alongside Django, though I only started seeing Python in itself as one of my tools a while later. I've used python mostly for task automation at my workplace (database connectivity, data manipulation, HTTP request/response communication, etc). Currently in a semi-serious relationship with this language. I'm in love.

Most of the JavaScript I've written has been for frameworks that use it (among others) as their server-side language. For front-end development...well, now a days there's nothing that jQuery can't do in a better, more browser-independent way.
