<p>Expressions are used to filter down <a href="../query/" class="ref">Query</a> objects. They
can be passed to the <a href="../query/filter/" class="ref">filter</a> function in particular.</p>
<p>The most basic expression is created by accessing the <a href="../f/" class="ref">F</a> object
which will return an expression that points to a field. Further manipulation
of it can create more expressive expressions. <code>F.name</code> literally just means
that a field by that name exists and is set to a value.</p>
<p>The query syntax is mostly the same in Python as well as in the Jinja 2
templates, the main difference are <a href="and/" class="ref">and</a> and <a href="or/" class="ref">or</a>.</p>
