Use cookies and sessions (not JWTs) for authentication
I'd also written an article on token authentication for django: https://www.spapas.net/2021/08/25/django-token-rest-auth/ using the REST Framework's TokenAuthentication.
This is simplest thing for most cases.
The session authentication that is proposed in the article is also great but has two problems:
* It will be hacky to implement for mobile apps (it should be possible but would not be something I'd like to do, I had tried in the past and remember that I needed to jump to a lot of hoops to "pick" that session cookie)
* The cookies can't be shared between different domains (cookies be shared the same domain or between a parent and child domain, i.e api.example.com can set/get cookies from .example.com).
So you can use the SessionAuthnentication if your frontend and backend share their domain and you know that your API won't ever be used for mobiles apps. On all other cases use TokenAuthentication.
I don't have experience with JWT Authentication, however I know it can be done and is used be various apps f.e baserow: https://gitlab.com/bramw/baserow/-/blob/develop/backend/src/...

I Found Perfect CMS after Years of Trial and Error
Sanity, Contentful, and Hygraph are a few examples. Very often a CMS has a pricing page, but is also open-source, and has docs on how to self-host it for free. A great example of that is Directus, and there is no need to avoid those CMS.

The change licence in Directus simply seems to be GPL3:

The only provision they have added is that if a business uses it in production and that business has >5 revenue/funding then they have to obtain a commercial licence.

Ask HN: Anybody used Retool for production, user-facing app?
I would also recommend looking at Directus (https://directus.io).
We evaluated PayloadCMS to drive the backend of a mobile app and eventually settled on Directus because it supported heterogeneous collections which was something we had to have.
Directus also has a template for a multi-tenant app which sounds like something you might need.
