Re: Why should we use Django Rest Framework?

Just  a quick tip: Sometimes you need a little JSON endpoint for some feature of your site or project, and a full REST framework like DRF is completely overkill. Django makes this incredibly easy, out of the box:


from django.http import JsonResponse

def some_view(request):
    my_dict
= {'foo': "bar"}  # Arbitrarily complex dictionary
   
return JsonResponse(my_dict)


And that's it - the URL for that view now emits JSON, ready for JS to consume. It's ridiculous how little code you need to make it happen.
