It fills the gap between generic HTML tooling and framework-aware template code that contains tags ordinary HTML formatters do not understand. ### Project history The official repository was created in July 2021 and describes djLint as a formatter and linter for HTML templates. The README frames the project as a response to template files being left out while many programming languages already had standard formatters and linters. The project grew around both formatting and linting modes: users can lint, check formatting, reformat, run pre-commit hooks, and configure behavior through `pyproject.toml`, `djlint.toml`, `.djlint.toml`, or `.djlintrc`. The official docs and README also show multilingual documentation and integrations as part of the public surface. ### Adoption history djLint adoption is visible in its packaging spread: the official README documents PyPI, Homebrew, npm experimental installation, and pre-commit hooks. That mix fits web teams that want the same tool in Python environments, JavaScript-heavy repositories, and system package managers. The official release metadata shows continued activity through the mid-2020s, including the 1.36 series in 2024 and the 1.39 series in 2026. The project also advertises downloads and community links from the README, signaling that it had moved beyond a one-off formatter experiment. ### How it is used Typical use is `djlint . --lint`, `djlint . --check`, or `djlint . --reformat`, often with an explicit template extension such as `html.j2`. Teams put options in project config files and use pre-commit hooks for automatic reformatting and lint checks. ### Why package nerds care djLint matters to package nerds because it packages a messy cross-template problem into one CLI while still fitting Python, npm, Homebrew, and pre-commit ecosystems. It also sits next to smaller tools like DjHTML, making the template-formatting space unusually visible in package-manager catalogs. ### Timeline - 2021-07-12: Official GitHub repository created. - 2024-12-24: v1.36.4 release published. - 2026-06-04: v1.37.0 and v1.38.0 releases published. - 2026-06-30: v1.39.6 release published. ### Related projects - Related projects include DjHTML for indentation-only Django and Jinja templates, HTMLHint for HTML linting, curlylint for template linting, Black as a formatting-culture reference point, and pre-commit for hook-based adoption. ### Sources - - - - - - ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
