django-rest-framework VS falcon

code from serializers.py line 775

Long story short, it has proved rather difficult to validate incoming data when it is incomplete (but otherwise valid -- often the case for PATCH). The request data may only contain some fields -- those that contain different / new information -- and the model instance's existing information is maintained for all other fields. In fact, DRF issue #4306 perfectly sums up this particular challenge.

Falcon FastAPI Sanic Starlite (disclosure: I do work here)

Sanic is very very popular with 16.6k stars, 1.5k forks, opencollective sponsors and a very active github. Falcon is more popular than japronto with 8.9k stars, 898 forks, opencollective sponsors and a very active github too. Despite Japronto been keeped as first place by TechEmPower, Falcon is a way better solution in general with performance similar to fastify an very fast node.js framework that hits 575k requests per second in this benchmark.

I prefer Falcon for kicking up an API.

Falcon

And here's a project that's mostly Python, and optionally uses Cython https://github.com/falconry/falcon

To help with the above two cases I would consider using a microframework, and the Python community provides many solutions. In my professional career I’ve had the opportunity to work with three very good alternatives to Django: Flask, Falcon, and Fast API. Flask is designed to be easy to use and extend. It follows the principles of minimalism and gives more control over the app. Choosing it, developers can use multiple types of databases, which is not easy to do in Django. We can also plug in our favorite ORM and use it without any risk of unpredictable app behavior. In contrast to Django, it’s easy to integrate NoSQL databases with Flask.

This may not be exactly what you asked for but I found contributing to open source projects really exposed me to different approaches I never would have considered and may not have fully grasped had I not had to actually dive into the code to solve an issue. Falcon is a great place to start and the guys are super friendly there.
