django-rest-auth is a Django app that exposes registration and authentication functionality as REST API endpoints for building SPAs and mobile apps. It is officially deprecated in favor of dj-rest-auth and is no longer maintained.
Use cases
- add login and registration REST endpoints to a Django backend
- authenticate a single-page app against Django
- support social login via REST API for a mobile client
- expose user account management as JSON APIs
- replace Django's session auth with token-based API auth
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Django project that already depends on django-rest-auth
- you need a well-known reference implementation of Django REST auth endpoints
When to avoid
- starting a new Django REST project - use dj-rest-auth instead
- you need ongoing maintenance, security patches, or Django 5 compatibility
- you need non-REST authentication flows
