What is you opinion of most flask extensions being outdated, being deprecated or just being an alpha release?
Although Flask-Debugtoolbar could use some love. I've opened a PR to fix a deprecation warning for Flask 2.0 back in May 2021 at https://github.com/flask-debugtoolbar/flask-debugtoolbar/pull/157 and it hasn't been looked at.

So before doing any caching or performance improvement, track the bottlenecks using tools like django debug toolbar, django silk. You can also use locust for performance/load testing.

Django Debug Toolbar Setup
For the installation of the Django Debug Toolbar, you need to have a Django project where you can use pip in a Virtual Environment or without them. If you don’t want to use pip, you can get the code of this component from here (https://github.com/jazzband/django-debug-toolbar) and put it in your Django project path; but the pip installation is easier and I will focus on that.

Setting up Django in a Better Way in 5 Minutes and Understanding How It Works
The reason behind this splitting is that we can safely use packages and related settings only where we need. For example, this starter kit has the package django-debug-toolbar. This is only intended for your development environment and not for your production. This can be very risky if used in production because if your Django project encounters errors, all the debug info will be shown to the user which is a severe security risk. Similarly, for tracking errors in production, we're using Sentry which is not needed in our local environment since we already have django-debug-toolbar. For keeping these settings file separate so that they don't conflict with each other, the settings file is split for serving different environments.
