+Some time you need to export a file into a specific format for some use like upload to the old system.
+In this case I need to have a CSV file which another software fill.
+
+## The code
+
+I wrote a ClassView for this case, this class. [^1]
+
+[^1]: I don't like coding functional view so I only code ClassViews
+
+``` python
+class CsvCarsDownload(View):
+    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
+        response = HttpResponse(content_type="text/csv")
+        response["Content-Disposition"] = 'attachment; filename="cars.csv"'
+        my_dict = [{
+          "brand": "Ford",
+          "model": "Mustang",
+          "year": 1964
+        }]
+        writer = csv.DictWriter(
+            response, dialect="excel", fieldnames=my_dict[0].keys()
+        )
+        writer.writeheader()
+        for element in my_dict:
+          writer.writerow(element)
+        return response
+```
+
+You can change the type of the the CSV changing the __dialect__ with one of the type of the CSV dialect (excel, excel_tab, unix_dialect) and changing the __my_dict__ with any type of list of dict.
+
+With this code you can use any Class Mixin from others module for add other functions like permission supports or loggeer configurations.
