Hi, my name is Nikita Sobolev, I am a CPython core dev, Django Software Foundation member, and maintainer of countless Python / Django opensource tools.

Now I am happy to present to you my new project.

Docs: https://django-modern-rest.rtfd.io/ Code: https://github.com/wemake-services/django-modern-rest/

Features:

- No AI slop, but built for the LLM era.

- Blazingly fast.

- Supports Django >= 4.2

- Supports `pydantic2`, `msgspec`, `attrs`, `dataclasses`, `TypedDict` as model schemas, but not bound to any of these libraries.

- Supports async Django without any `sync_to_async` calls inside, tested to work with free-threading builds.

- Fully typed and checked with `mypy`, `pyright`, and `pyrefly` in strict modes.

- Supports content negotiation, has default implementations for `json`, `msgpack`, SSE, Json Lines, and more.

- Strict schema validation of both requests and responses, including errors.

- Supports OpenAPI 3.1 / 3.2 semantic schema generation out of the box.

- Supports all your existing `django` primitives and packages, no custom runtimes.

- Great testing tools with `schemathesis`, `polyfactory`, `tracecov`, bundled `pytest` plugin, and default Django's testing primitives.

- 100% test coverage with 2000+ of carefully designed unit, integration, and property-based tests.

- High security standards.

- Built by the community for the community, not a single-person project.

- Great docs.

I still remember 3-4 years back I built my entire stack of my first startup using Django. There were two platforms, Flask and Django, and everyone at that time suggested I go with Django. I still have a lot of good memories with Django. If I go to my GitHub, there are like 20 different projects right now which were made using Django.

Honestly, I kind of forgot the name because of the LLM rush and everything around, but this is so good. Coming across brought back a lot of memories. Thank you for that, and yes, I will check out the entire project. It looks good.

I also have a very warm relationship with Django. I used it for my first ever Python project back in 2010. And it made me to ditch Java and come to Python land. Great memories!
