Re: Django REST Framework

Hi Russell,

Thanks for your reply. As I am fairly new to django and programming in general, do you mind sharing what REST APIs actually do? Thank you!

Hi Max,

Django ReST Framework, as the name suggests, is a framework for building ReST APIs in Django.

It's not officially part of the Django framework, but it's creator and principle maintainer - Tom Christie - is a member of the Django core team. Tom recently held a Kickstarter to fund v3 of the framework; that Kickstarter was extraordinarily successful due to the support of the community.

If you need to write a ReSTful API for your Django app, it's well worth your time to take a look at it.

Yours,

Hi all,

I just came across Django REST Framework. From what I have read up so far, its a Web API framework.

What does it do and what is the difference between this and the regular Django Web Framework?

Thanks!
