Django Tastypie: Create APIs that is RESTful and uses HTTP well

Unfortunately tastypie doesn't yet work with Django 4.1 - I logged this bug a few weeks ago https://github.com/django-tastypie/django-tastypie/issues/1640
cannot import name '_sanitize_token' from django

API framework choice?

Other than DRF, TastyPie is the other REST API framework for Django I had used in the past.

For an API, if you have a backend like Django (which I admit has a solid learning curve) you can make quick APIs with addons like django rest framework, or tastypie. The most recent I saw was django-ninja, but I have yet to try that out. I think an ML / cookie cutter plugin would be pretty interesting to be honest. I'll keep a look out and see, but /u/halfourname is correct, the flexibility would have penalties. Usually they're very narrow in scope.
Does anyone know the status of Tastypie? Worth using?

But the django-tastypie GitHub repo shows there's recent activity and it now supports "Django 2.2, 3.2 (LTS releases) or Django 4.0 (latest release)".
