## What it is
A Django app for generating generic activity streams from user actions on a site, following the Activity Streams specification. It supports following and unfollowing actors so users can receive personalized feeds of actions performed on any Django model.

## Use cases
- build a GitHub-style dashboard showing actions on projects a user watches
- generate a personalized feed of actions from users someone follows
- record actor/verb/object/target events for any Django model
- create a social activity timeline for a web app
- track and display recent actions like 'user closed issue' on a site

## When to choose
- you have a Django project and need activity feeds or follow-based streams
- you want a spec-compliant (activitystrea.ms) action model with generic foreign keys
- you need a mature, BSD-licensed, actively maintained feed solution

## When to avoid
- your project is not Django-based
- you need real-time push notifications rather than queryable stream records
- you need a full federated social network protocol like ActivityPub

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: web-framework, middleware, orm
- domain: web-development, backend, social-media, developer-tools
- platform: python
- tags: django, activity-stream, activitypub, feeds, follow, generic-foreign-keys, web-server
