Messages Framework Home
The Django Messages Framework provides a simple and flexible way to send temporary messages to users. This system is ideal for scenarios where you want to notify users of events, such as successful form submissions, errors, warnings, or other important updates. The messages are stored in the session and displayed to the user on the next request. After being displayed, they are automatically removed, making it a great way to communicate with users in a non-intrusive manner.
