GraphQL with Django : advisable or not?

• strawberry

  33 3,755 9.4 Python

  A GraphQL library for Python that leverages type annotations 🍓

  

There are a few other frameworks out there like Ariadne and Strawberry. I haven't tried them out as both seemed also quite new and immature and I imagine I'd run into the same performance issues with them.

• graphene-django

  12 4,228 7.6 Python

  Build powerful, efficient, and flexible GraphQL APIs with seamless Django integration.

  

in my last project I used graphene to build a Django backend application with GraphQL. It seemed like the best framework to adopt graphql in python at that time in terms of stability and maturity.

• graphene-django-optimizer

  1 423 3.8 Python

  Optimize database access inside graphene queries

The N+1 problem is going to exist no matter what framework or approach you use, even if you switch to REST. There exists a N+1 optimizer for graphene that will read your queries and prefetch/select the relevant fields to make things easier.
