Wikipedia describes faceted browsing as "a technique for accessing a collection of information represented using a faceted classification, allowing users to explore by filtering available information. A faceted classification system allows the assignment of multiple classifications to an object, enabling the classifications to be ordered in multiple ways, rather than in a single, pre-determined, taxonomic order" (see the mindmap below for more details).
DJFacet is a pluggable module for the Django web application framework that allows you to navigate the data in your webapp using an approach based on 'facets'. DJFacet relies entirely on the django models you've already defined within your project, and on a configuration file where you can define the facets and assign them behaviour.
