Asset managers for combining/compressing JavaScript/CSS and for versioning your media files.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| CSS compression | Whether CSS files can be compressed |
| Combining | Can concatenate/combine files into so-called bundles |
| Auto-regenerates | Automatically regenerates/updates files and bundles when files change (during development) |
| Image versioning | Whether image files get versioned, too (or at least, whether it's compatible with Django's ManifestStaticFilesStorage or CachedStaticFilesStorage). |
| JavaScript compression | Whether JavaScript can be compressed |
| Dev mode | Is a development mode available where files aren't combined/compressed (for easier debugging)? |
| HTML5 manifest | Can it auto-generate an HTML5 offline manifest file? |
| Sprites | Can it generate sprites? Only data URIs aren't enough because they don't work with all popular browsers. |
| Compressors | List of supported JS/CSS compressors |
| Other features and notes | Any other extra features |
| Manual regeneration | Has a command for regenerating all asset bundles. (Used in production.) |
| Other languages | Other supported languages (in addition to JavaScript and CSS) |
| Cache Busting | Adds version tag to file names for browser cache updates when content changes. |
| Filter backends API | Can it be extended via filter backends? This means *at least* being able to add CSS compilers like Sass. |
| Gzips | Pre-generates gzipped version of asset |
| Source Maps | Does it support sourcemaps in the generated js/css? |
| Works in sandbox (e.g. App Engine) | Whether it works in sandboxed environments like Google App Engine |
| staticfiles-compatible URL rewriting | In CSS files relative url() expressions stay valid no matter if you combine your CSS files with this particular asset manager or if you use the same files uncombined with django.contrib.staticfiles. This asset manager will correctly rewrite relative URL paths when files are combined, even if the CSS files are located in different subfolders at different depth levels. |
| Caching in dev mode | Are assets properly cached when using runserver? This means there will be no unnecessary HTTP requests (not even "if-modified-since"). This is important for fast reloads with large web apps. |
