Kudos to everyone that contributed to Django in any way.<p>Been using it for more than a decade and never it has disappointed me.<p>Every release comes with excellent features and polishes.<p>Everything in Django is well mature, properly maintained and built for maximum productivity and maintainability.<p>One of the best thing about Django is, it's never gets involved with bubble type technologies until proven reliable and useful.<p>Either be it async, websocket, NoSQL, fancy SPA, AMP, or any specific frontend framework integration.
I don’t get why there is so much negativity on Django when Instagram and other large websites still use it.<p>I used it a few years ago for a startup and I liked it. It also has a user management system built in also .
After the solarwinds breach I started an open source project to replace solarwinds. I used django and it's working great.<p>Anyone have experience upgrading django? Does it go well?
Given new entrants into the backend space, like Supabase (for a Firebase-like open source alternative), Hasura (open source GraphQL on Postgres), etc, how viable is Django and similar technologies like Rails these days? It seems like the former are PaaS which you can simply drop into your app but the latter are more so full on backends that let you control everything.
