  • tetra

    Tetra - A full stack component framework for Django using Alpine.js (by samwillis)

  • There's a brilliant project called Django Unicorn that aims to be the equivalent of Laravel Livewire for Django. You should take a look.

    https://www.django-unicorn.com/

    That and HTMX + Alpine.js are a strong combination.

    (I also had a bash at building a similar tool for Django called Tetra but unfortunately haven't had the time needed to commit to it: https://www.tetraframework.com)

  • InfluxDB

  • django-ninja

    πŸ’¨ Fast, Async-ready, Openapi, type hints based framework for building APIs

  • A good compromise I have found is to use Django Ninja [1]. It is inspired by FastAPI, so it has a lot of the nice things like the automatically generated Swagger/OpenAPI docs, as well as having routers as decorators, and using python types for automatic serialization.

    While I think FastAPI is great in its first class async support, Django has the Django ORM, plus Django Admin, which for me have been indisposable.

  • Strapi

    πŸš€ Strapi is the leading open-source headless CMS. It’s 100% JavaScript/TypeScript, fully customizable and developer-first.

  • In the node.js universe maybe something like https://strapi.io/
