Features currently being evaluated

Feature	Description
JavaScript compression	Whether JavaScript can be compressed
Auto-regenerates	Automatically regenerates/updates files and bundles when files change (during<br>development)
Image versioning	Whether image files get versioned, too (or at least, whether it's compatible<br>with Django's ManifestStaticFilesStorage or CachedStaticFilesStorage).
CSS compression	Whether CSS files can be compressed
HTML5 manifest	Can it auto-generate an HTML5 offline manifest file?
Dev mode	Is a development mode available where files aren't combined/compressed (for<br>easier debugging)?
Sprites	Can it generate sprites? Only data URIs aren't enough because they don't work<br>with all popular browsers.
Combining	Can concatenate/combine files into so-called bundles
Compressors	List of supported JS/CSS compressors
Manual regeneration	Has a command for regenerating all asset bundles. (Used in production.)
Other languages	Other supported languages (in addition to JavaScript and CSS)
Other features and notes	Any other extra features
Cache Busting	Adds version tag to file names for browser cache updates when content changes.
Gzips	Pre-generates gzipped version of asset
Filter backends API	Can it be extended via filter backends? This means at least being able to add<br>CSS compilers like Sass.
Source Maps	Does it support sourcemaps in the generated js/css?
Works in sandbox (e.g. App Engine)	Whether it works in sandboxed environments like Google App Engine
Caching in dev mode	Are assets properly cached when using runserver? This means there will be no<br>unnecessary HTTP requests (not even "if-modified-since"). This is important for<br>fast reloads with large web apps.
staticfiles-compatible URL rewriting	In CSS files relative url() expressions stay valid no matter if you combine your<br>CSS files with this particular asset manager or if you use the same files<br>uncombined with django.contrib.staticfiles. This asset manager will correctly<br>rewrite relative URL paths when files are combined, even if the CSS files are<br>located in different subfolders at different depth levels.
