How my team ships DRF + React features without ever hitting a mistyped param or outdated API call: drf-spectacular as the source of truth, generated zod clients, auto-generated forms, and strict typing on both sides.

A maintained, improved successor to nplusone — no more false positives on nullable foreign keys, stack traces in every detection, batch reporting, and full strict typing.

A CLI that copies source code from GitHub repos, URLs, and ZIP archives directly into your project — tracked, updatable, and fully yours. A Rust binary installable via pip.

Database-agnostic localized model fields built on Django's JSONField — with DRF serializers, strict type checking, and a clean admin UI. An alternative to django-localized-fields and django-modeltranslation.

I benchmarked the major Python web frameworks against real PostgreSQL workloads. The 20x performance gap you see in JSON benchmarks collapses to 1.3x once the database gets involved.

Modern DRF authentication with JWT cookies, 50+ social login providers, MFA, full type safety, and OpenAPI schemas that are actually correct — no manual fixes required.

A batteries-included WebSocket framework: automatic message routing with Pydantic, mypy/pyright type safety, auto-generated AsyncAPI docs, and testing utilities — one codebase for Django Channels and FastAPI.

Bringing Django Channels' battle-tested consumer patterns and channel layers to FastAPI, Starlette, and any ASGI framework — group messaging, background workers, and cross-process communication included.
