I was starting to look at the same thing. I used to do a bit of Django development (5ish years ago) and things seemed to have changed a good amount with the tooling / frontend.

Does anyone have an opinionated stack they like with Django to get things up and running quickly that could also set me up well for the future for a website and an app(if I want to transition the website to a stable business, etc)?

The things I'd be looking for opinions on:

  - django vs DRF
  - react (or next.js) vs vue vs something else for frontend
  - what other tooling should I use for modern front end development
  - what else is in your stack for CI/CD, rollbacks, db migrations, deployments, etc.
  - do you use any other templates or themes for the frontend to make the UI look good?
  - how you handle security / auth when using a front end framework with django as the backend -- are there any tricks? I've heard JWT can cause headaches 
  - any django packages they recommend using, or other front end packages that are popular

Thanks!

Thanks for the link - I'll probably just use this instead!

I don't do anything low latency so its mostly the common scientific python stack -- numpy, pandas, sklearn, etc. Mostly linux, lots of Spark, some R and C#. We're really flexible on what we can use to solve our problems but the team has pretty much settled on python as both developers and analysts can work together more easily.

Something I've been thinking about recently is that there should be a site that only takes the "good" products from amazon and displays them for different categories - maybe only the top 20 or so. If i'm looking for an oven mitt / phone case / whatever the amount of junk is overwhelming. I envision it would essentially be a semi-curated list of amazon items. Anyone know of something like this? It's on my backlist of projects to build if I can't find any substitutes.

Lazy Prices [1] is a paper I was looking at for a while (I work on a Quant Research team) that does this in a simple way and the authors had good results. It takes the changes in language in some key sections of financial fillings as signals.
