Django restframework or just Django

Using Django Forms & APIs
1

Hey guys,
I’m starting with django and I’m in doubt if I use Django restframework or just Django.
Part of the application will be used with the React app and the rest will be accessed via the WEB.
Thinking about protection and process, what would be better? All application using rest api or only partially ?

That’s entirely your decision and depends solely upon the UX you wish to create.

Thanks Ken. What frontend do you prefer to work with django restframework ?

I don’t. We’ve gone with HTMX as our front-end framework with server-side rendering of templates. DRF isn’t part of our normal stack.
