Django view template notes

{% expression %}

{{ output_value_in_context }}

{% for item in items %}
  {{ item }}
{% endfor %}

{% if item %}
  output something
{% else %}
  something else
{% endif %}

Conditional dislay:
{{ value_in_context:default_if_none:"something else" }}

Note no space between default_if_none:"something else" - if you add spaces you get error:
"default_if_none requires 2 arguments, 1 provided"

Exposing an Enum to a view template:
- return the Enum in context for the view:
return render(
  request,
  "example/example_template.html",
  {
    "ExampleStatus": ExampleStatus,
  },
)
- can then refernece ExampleStatus in {% if %} comparisons
