What are the current best practices for API versioning?

DRF seems to support it, but it requires to have a “switch” per version. If we support SemVer, every minor version would lead to a new serializer!

I’m sure there must be a better way. Do you guys know? :slight_smile:

I’m not seeing what the problem or issue is. Can you explain why you think this is true?
I don’t see why you couldn’t assign the same serializer to multiple versions.
