✨ Django Ninja

Fast, Async-ready, Openapi, type hints-based framework for API development that competes nicely with his older brother Django DRF. Key features:

• Easy: Designed to be easy to use and intuitive.
• FAST execution powered by Pydantic and async support.
• Fast to code: Type hints and automatic docs let you focus only on business logic.
• Standards-based: Based on the open standards for APIs: OpenAPI (previously known as Swagger) and JSON Schema.

✨ Django HTMX

According to the htmx website this tool allows us to access AJAX, Server-Sent Events, and WebSockets directly in HTML, using attributes. Django-HTML represents the glue between Django and HTMX technology.

A nice feature of HTMX is when doing asynchronous calls to your backend, HTMX does not expect a JSON response but an HTML fragment response. For more resources about this topic, feel free to access:
