Customizing Template Tags for AngularJS and Django

Integrating AngularJS with Django can present a challenge due to the conflicting template tags, both of which use {{ }}. To overcome this, it is necessary to adjust either AngularJS or Django's template tag syntax.

AngularJS Template Tag Customization:

In AngularJS 1.0, you can use the $interpolateProvider's APIs to customize the interpolation symbols. A suitable configuration would look like this:

myModule.config(function($interpolateProvider) {
  $interpolateProvider.startSymbol('{[{');
  $interpolateProvider.endSymbol('}]}');
});

Considerations:

• Mixing server-side and client-side templates can be complex and introduce security risks.
• Third-party directives that use {{ }} in their templates may become incompatible with the customized configuration.

Django Template Tag Customization:

For Django, there is currently no straightforward way to change its template tags. However, it is important to note that mixing template tags can create security vulnerabilities and maintenance difficulties.
