Django is a high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. It provides an ORM, templating, authentication, routing, and an admin interface out of the box for building database-driven web applications.

Use cases

• build a database-driven web application in python
• create a rest api backend
• build a website with admin panel and user authentication
• rapidly prototype a web app with orm and templates
• build a content management site
• develop a secure web application with built-in auth

When to choose

• you want a batteries-included python web framework with orm, auth, and admin built in
• you need rapid development of database-driven sites with strong security defaults
• you want a mature, well-documented framework with a large ecosystem

When to avoid

• you need a lightweight microframework for small apis or microservices
• you want full control over component selection (orm, templating, auth)
• you are building an async-first application with heavy websocket workloads
