[Django]-Storing user input data in HTML5

0👍

Your best bet is probably to work with a CMS. It would greatly reduce your development time and it would help you avoid common pit-falls.

I would recommend using WordPress with some sort of plugin as in my experience it has been the easiest to work with for small projects.

HTML5 has some new elements and a simplified syntax. Some elements have had their definitions changed (what the tags intended usage is).

Update:

Four years later, WordPress now has a REST API. A good way to store user input could be to check if they are logged in and then post information via AJAX to the API.

Use ViewModel with Knockout.js for responsiveness. Its pretty fast.
You can see this sample Knockout.js project here.

Have you taken a look at the Django HTML5 Boilerplate (DH5BP) project1 on GitHub?

From the Readme.md

The Django HTML5 Boilerplate…incorporat[es] the HTML5 Boilerplate (H5BP) project into an easy to consume Django-friendly Python package.

Find out…about HTML5 Boilerplate at https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate

This project differentiates itself from other H5BP to Django ports, by
including Fabric scripts that automatically convert new versions of
H5BP into a Django-friendly Python module. Ideally, this will make
keeping up-to-date with the latest version of H5BP trivial.
