It integrates directly into Django forms and supports custom challenge generators, noise filters, and image transformations to vary the visual appearance of each challenge.\n\nThe package is designed for ease of deployment with sensible defaults but offers extensive customization: you can define your own challenge logic, alter image rendering, and enable optional text-to-speech audio output for accessibility. It depends on Django, Pillow (for image generation), and django-ranged-response; Flite is an optional system dependency for audio output. The package is actively maintained and compatible with Django 4.2+ and Python 3.8+.","worth_installing":"Yes. Active maintenance, no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and permissive MIT license make it a safe choice. Install if you need form-level bot protection in Django with customizable challenges and accessibility support. Verify that your environment can satisfy Pillow's FreeType dependency before deployment."},"id":"django-simple-captcha","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-simple-captcha","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-simple-captcha.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-simple-captcha/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-30","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-simple-captcha","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"A very simple, yet powerful, Django captcha application"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":253600,"position":8515,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.7.0"}
