    Semantic Versioning Specification

    Django is still my go-to. Specifically [Django-REST-Framework](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/) with a front-end written with [react-static](https://github.com/react-static/react-static).

    Django's ORM is so nice and the ecosystem around it rocks.

    Its biggest downside is painful upgrades. They don't really follow [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/)

  3. Django

    The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines.

  4. django-redis

    Full featured redis cache backend for Django.

    This isn't such a big deal... There are great third-party packages (i.e https://github.com/jazzband/django-redis) for whoever needs a redis cache backend in a project.

    Myself, I just use good ol' memcached for all my caching needs (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/topics/cache/#memcache...). It is rock solid and has never failed me till now!

  5. django-cacheops

    A slick ORM cache with automatic granular event-driven invalidation.

    Nuts, I was hoping that this was an evolution of https://github.com/Suor/django-cacheops which uses Redis to cache and invalidate ORM result sets by an abstracted representation of filter values. It works, but has a lot of magic (as is the Django way) and takes some tending-to in production.

  6. react-static

    ⚛️ 🚀 A progressive static site generator for React.

    Django is still my go-to. Specifically [Django-REST-Framework](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/) with a front-end written with [react-static](https://github.com/react-static/react-static).

    Django's ORM is so nice and the ecosystem around it rocks.

  7. django-rest-framework

    Web APIs for Django. 🎸

  8. django-upgrade

    Automatically upgrade your Django projects.

    You should try the new [django-upgrade](https://github.com/adamchainz/django-upgrade) package. It claims you can either just run it or hook it into your CI. It will automatically take care of some of the heavy lifting for you.
