## What it is
A comprehensive styleguide documenting HackSoft's best practices for building Django projects, covering models, services, APIs, testing, settings, and error handling. It serves as a reference guide rather than an installable library.

## Use cases
- learn django best practices
- structure a django project
- django rest framework api conventions
- django service layer patterns
- django testing conventions
- django error handling patterns

## When to choose
- starting a new Django project and wanting opinionated conventions
- standardizing Django code style across a team
- learning how to organize services, selectors, and serializers in Django

## When to avoid
- you need an installable package or tool rather than documentation
- your team already follows a different Django styleguide
- you use a framework other than Django

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, backend, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: python
- tags: django, styleguide, best-practices, drf, coding-standards
