Sekizai means "blocks" in Japanese, and that's what this app provides. A fresh look at blocks. With django-sekizai you can define placeholders where your blocks get rendered and at different places in your templates append to those blocks. This is especially useful for css and javascript. Your sub-templates can now define css and Javascript files to be included, and the css will be nicely put at the top and the Javascript to the bottom, just like you should. Also sekizai will ignore any duplicate content in a single block.
There are some issue/restrictions with this implementation due to how the django template language works, but if used properly it can be very useful and it is the media handling framework for the django CMS (since version 2.2).
