If a frontend library needs a to parse JSON, you can use the json library to convert a python dict to a JSON valid string. Use the escapejs filter import json def foo(request): json_string = json.dumps(<time_series>) render(request, “foo.html”, {‘time_series_json_string’: json_string}) <script> var jsonObject = JSON.parse(‘{{ time_series_json_string | escapejs }}’); </script>
