Banjo

Banjo is an abstraction over Django which provides a simplified subset of Django’s functionality, meant for beginners. Banjo makes it easy to create a server which responds to HTTP requests containing JSON data. Banjo servers return data, not visual web pages.

All the Django documentation can be used for reference, and many Django patterns are replicated here.
