While searching and experimenting for ways to pass context variables to templates in Django, I found a way that avoids the longer route of passing a custom context function through TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS in the settings file and using RequestContext in every view function. The approach involves creating a single function that returns a context dictionary and just using this to update every view function where the custom context is needed.

Reality is not that easy
Our perceptions of it can get so messy
But our minds thirst for answer
Our wills eager to surrender

DjangoApp (renamed as Portable Django) grew out of a need to package a Django project into a desktop application. Instead of embedding it within a desktop GUI program, my solution was to build a self-contained Python/Django environment that can be launched by a simple launcher app. I figured that this can be useful for development purposes as well as for learning. 

Bottle is a fast, simple and lightweight WSGI micro web-framework for Python. It is similar to Flask, but it is even more lightweight and minimal. In fact, the whole framework is contained in a single 44kb file (as of version 0.9.6). If you don't need many of the built-in functions in Flask or any bigger Python web framework, I personally recommend to use Bottle. Now, I am using it to build a simple static website in Google App Engine. Bottle is pluggable to other modules if there's a need to add other goodies. 

In the future, scientists will be able to simulate life in the computer using new theories on mechanisms of evolution coupled with advanced computer simulation technologies. No more real animal or cellular models. We will be able to investigate the causes of diseases by using virtual biological models of any organism to a resolution down to the molecular level. We can dissect the complete progression of any disease and be able to identify the macromolecular elements that are potentially involved.
