Django VS django-ninja

>As an example, AutoCodeRover successfully fixed issue #32347 of Django.

This bug was fixed three years ago in a one-line change.[0] Presumably the fix was already in the training data.

You should not test Django's own code — it's already been tested. For example, you don't need to write a test that checks if an object is retrieved with get_object_or_404 — Django's testing suite already has that covered.

Django is a high-level Python web framework that prioritizes rapid development with clear, reusable code. Its batteries-included approach supplies most of what you need for complex database-driven websites without turning to external libraries and dealing with security and maintenance risks. In this tutorial, we will build a traditional "Hello, World" application while introducing you to the core concepts behind Django.

If you want to get into Python web development then Django can be a good place to start. https://www.djangoproject.com/

In this Article, we create our own blog called CodeCraze using Django, a popular web framework written in python. Django is designed to help developers to rapidly build their web applications from concept to completion in an efficient way. Its a batteries included framework which provides out of the box functionalities such as ORM, API Integration, authentication, form handling & many more...

There are many models of access control, however, in this guide, we are going to focus on Role Based Access Control (RBAC) and how to implement it in Django.

Django Ninja [1], it forever changed how I write Django project, in a way so elegant and productive.

Django Ninja is a RESTful wrapper for Django, while UtilMeta Python Framework uses a more concise declarative ORM Schema for Django and other future-supporting ORMs like sqlachemy and Peewee to build RESTful APIs more efficiently, and supports not only Django but all Python mainstream frameworks like Django, Flask, Starlette, FastAPI, Sanic, Tornado, etc.

I can't recommend [django-ninja](https://github.com/vitalik/django-ninja) enough. It's an easy to use, extremely fast, typed API for django. I've found it to be better in almost all aspects when compared to djangorestframework.

It's gaining popularity but is still widely unknown.

> The only place I really see Django at large companies is as an api using DRF or something.

This is not a bad thing. Using Django as an API backend is amazingly fast in terms of development time, especially with modern frameworks such as django-ninja [1].

Just use the built-in ORM to create models, write your endpoints, and use the built-in admin interface to play with the database if you don't have endpoints for everything.

There is also a less known feature of Django called admindocs [2], which automatically generates a human readable, hyperlinked documentation for your models and relations between them.

Personally, I also prefer django-ninja to DRF.

Actually that's not fully true. If you mix async and sync codes in django-ninja there will be some errors. Where's the proof ? django-ninja doesn't support async auth

Subscribe to this issue :D

Also recommend Django-Ninja. It basically reimplements fastapi's type and decorator-based API construction, but embedded directly in django so you have access to django's ORM and middleware library.
