Iterating through two lists in Django templates

Simply define zip as a template filter:

@register.filter(name='zip')
def zip_lists(a, b):
  return zip(a, b)

Then, in your template:

{%for a, b in first_list|zip:second_list %}
  {{a}}
  {{b}}
{%endfor%}

You can use zip in your view:

mylist = zip(list1, list2)
context = {
            'mylist': mylist,
        }
return render(request, 'template.html', context)

and in your template use

{% for item1, item2 in mylist %}

to iterate through both lists.

This should work with all version of Django.
