Built my first Django REST API (movie app) – looking for feedback

<div class="md">I&#39;m building a website which has a form where you login using email OTP. Basically the form initially has a user ID field and a submit button. When the submit button is clicked, the user ID is sent to the API of another website which sends an OTP to the user&#39;s email. At the same time, a new OTP field appears below the user ID field and the submit button changes to a login button. The user enters the correct OTP, and this is sent to the other website&#39;s API for validation, and he/she can log in. What is the simplest way of doing this? Like without using HTMX or Ajax, only HTML, JS, and Django. I mean, if HTMX and Ajax are necessary then I&#39;m willing to learn.

Help with adding a form where a new field appears

<div class="md">SOLVED: The way I was trying to do this was fundamentally wrong. For the HTML files that I want to be editable and updateable without restarting the django app, I just need to load those files inside the view and then pass them through the context like so: <pre><code>post_html_content = &quot;&quot; with post.content.open(&#39;r&#39;) as f: post_html_content = &#39;&#39;.join(f.readlines()) context[&#39;post_html_content&#39;] = post_html_content </code></pre> Then in my base blog post template, where I was previously using an <code>{% include post.content.path %}</code> I just use a <code>{{ post_html_content|safe|escape }}</code> . I&#39;ll have to do a bit more work to make sure the HTML files are ACTUALLY safe, but this is fine for now since it&#39;s just me using it. ------------- I have an issue with my website with blog content where the blog post templates (ie, the individual articles) seem to be cached and require me to restart the website any time I make changes. My understanding is that this is because <code>django.template.loaders.cached.Loader</code> is enabled by default. But for the templates for individual blog posts, I don&#39;t want them to just always be cached by default because I eventually want a setup where it&#39;s possible for a user to make quick and easy edits to certain HTML content and have those changes reflected on the website without having to restart the entire Django project. In case it matters, I have a base blog_post template that uses an <code>{% include %}</code> tag to import the desired article template based on the url parameters (view fetches a related DB record that holds the path to the article template file and passes it through the <code>context</code>). I&#39;d prefer to have a setup where either certain templates are not cached at all (based on directory location or the view that ends up loading them), or ideally where a given template is updated in the cache if an edit is made to it. A lot of the information I can find from reading through this suggests that this should be possible in some form, but it&#39;s really not clear to me how to actually implement anything and also a lot of the information is just very old anyways (10+ years). Some other guidance I can find focuses on how to prevent template caching when debug is True, but that&#39;s not feasible for a production environment. And even if I try it just to test it out, it still doesn&#39;t seem to matter. For reference I have the following setup: django version 5.2 gunicorn ubuntu server Can I get a ELI5 answer for how to ensure certain templates are updated in the cache when edits are made? Or maybe there&#39;s a guide/resource out there that would help me understand my specific problem and how to address it? </div> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/mugwhyrt"> /u/mugwhyrt </a> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/djangolearning/comments/1q7oulh/struggling_to_understand_template_cacheing_and/">[link]</a> &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/djangolearning/comments/1q7oulh/struggling_to_understand_template_cacheing_and/">[comments]</a>

SOLVED:
 The way I was trying to do this was fundamentally wrong. For the HTML files that I want to be editable and updateable without restarting the django app, I just need to load those files inside the view and then pass them through the context like so:
 post_html_content = "" with post.content.open('r') as f: post_html_content = ''.join(f.readlines()) context['post_html_content'] = post_html_content 
 Then in my base blog post template, where I was previously using an {% include post.content.path %} I just use a {{ post_html_content|safe|escape }} .
 I'll have to do a bit more work to make sure the HTML files are ACTUALLY safe, but this is fine for now since it's just me using it.
 -------------
 I have an issue with my website with blog content where the blog post templates (ie, the individual articles) seem to be cached and require me to restart the website any time I make changes. My understanding is that this is because django.template.loaders.cached.Loader is enabled by default.

Django Roadmap

<div class="md">I’m trying to understand the design decision behind Django not serving static files (CSS, JS, images) by default when running in production (e.g. with Gunicorn or uWSGI). From a developer’s perspective it feels confusing that static files work automatically with <code>runserver</code> but suddenly stop working once you move to production, requiring tools like Nginx, WhiteNoise, or <code>collectstatic</code>.

I've been using Claude Code (Anthropic's CLI for AI-assisted coding) and came across https://github.com/ChrisWiles/claude-code-showcase for TypeScript projects. It was so well-structured that I forked it and adapted the whole thing for the Django stack.
 What this is: A ready-to-use Claude Code configuration for Django/PostgreSQL/HTMX projects.
 GitHub: https://github.com/kjnez/claude-code-django
 Forked from: https://github.com/ChrisWiles/claude-code-showcase (TypeScript version)
 What's included
 9 Django-specific skills:
 
pytest-django-patterns - Factory Boy, fixtures, TDD workflow
 django-models - QuerySet optimization, managers, signals, migrations
 django-forms - ModelForm, clean methods, HTMX form submission
 django-templates - inheritance, partials, template tags
 htmx-alpine-patterns - hx-* attributes, partial templates, dynamic UI
 drf-patterns - serializers, viewsets, permissions, pagination
 celery-patterns - task definition, retry strategies, periodic tasks
 django-channels - WebSocket consumers, real-time features
 systematic-debugging - four-phase debugging methodology
 
Slash commands:
 
/ticket PROJ-123 - reads ticket from JIRA/Linear, explores codebase, implements feature, creates PR, updates ticket status
 /pr-review - code review using project standards
 /code-quality - runs ruff, pyright, pytest
 
Automated workflows:
 
Code review agent that checks against Django best practices
 GitHub Actions for automated PR review, weekly code quality sweeps, monthly docs sync
 
Skill evaluation hooks - automatically suggests which skills Claude should activate based on what you're working on.
 Why this matters
 When I ask Claude to "add a form for user registration," it knows to:
 
Use ModelForm
 Validate in clean() and clean_<field>() methods
 Create a partial template for HTMX responses
 Write a Factory Boy factory and pytest tests first (TDD)
 Use select_related() if the form touches related models
 
It's not guessing at patterns—it's following the Django conventions I've documented.
 Stack assumptions
 
Django with PostgreSQL
 HTMX for dynamic UI
 uv for package management
 ruff + pyright for linting/types
 pytest-django + Factory Boy for testing
 Celery for background tasks (optional)
 DRF for APIs (optional)
 
The configuration is modular—remove what you don't need.
 Getting started
 
Clone or copy the .claude/ directory and CLAUDE.md to your project
 Install Claude Code if you haven't: npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
 Customize CLAUDE.md with your project specifics
 Start using it
 
Big thanks to Christopher Wiles for the original structure—check out his TypeScript version if that's your stack.
 Happy to answer questions or take feedback.

What else do you think is important? What Django opinions would you think are important for someone coming from Node? With node backends, if I don't like a library, I can replace it with another one. But with Django, I've learned it's best to stick to the framework

Do you have any regrets in your app?

<div class="md">I have been a lifelong Django lover—since before the 1.0 release even.

Hey everyone, 👋
 I shared this project here a couple of months ago and got some really helpful feedback. Since then, I’ve been iterating on it and just shipped a new release.
 Alpaca-Main is a full-stack, real-time trading boilerplate/reference architecture, built with:
  
Django + Django REST Framework
 Celery + Redis
 React (Vite)
 Docker 
  
What’s new in this update
 Public demo (anon + full mode)
  
You can now try the demo without creating an account (read-only, rate-limited)
 If you sign up, you get the full real-time experience: create watchlists, add assets, and watch data update every second via WebSockets
 The intent is still: experience it → clone it → run locally with your own keys
  
Backend/data model changes
  
Separate tables for minute candles vs aggregated candles
 Cleaner aggregation pipeline with less coupling between timeframes
 Easier to extend for new resolutions or backtesting workflows
  
Frontend / UX improvements
  
New UI and layout
 Improved indicator system: 
 Overlay indicators (on candles)
 Panel indicators (separate panes)
 
 Improved candle replay mechanism 
 Replay stays in sync with indicators
 Lets you replay historical data with indicators applied, not just raw candles
 
  
Live demo
 https://alpaca.mnaveedk.com
 (Anon mode is rate-limited for cost/abuse reasons; signup unlocks full realtime features)
 Repo
 https://github.com/naveedkhan1998/alpaca-main
 This is intended to serve as a starter/reference boilerplate, not a fully developed trading platform.
 Question for the community:
 If you were using this as a base, what would you expect next?
 Some things I’m considering:
  
Strategy / backtesting hooks
 Event-driven strategy callbacks
 Email/SMS alerting system.
 Paper-trading extensions
 Better data export/research workflows
  
Would love feedback from anyone 🙏

Hey everyone! I've been working on a Django microservice template that includes all the modern DevOps goodies, and I wanted to share it with the community.
 What is PyService?
 It's a batteries-included Django microservice template designed to help you skip the boring setup and jump straight into building features. Think of it as a solid foundation for your next API project.
 🎯 Key Features
  
Django + DRF - RESTful API with auto-generated Swagger docs
 Full Docker Support - Dockerfile + docker-compose ready to go
 CI/CD Pipeline - GitHub Actions workflows included
 Ansible Automation - Deploy with one command
 Testing Suite - pytest configured and ready
 Makefile Commands - Simple commands for everything
 Environment Management - Multiple requirement files (dev/prod)
  
🔥 What Makes It Different?
 Most Django templates give you just the basics. This one gives you:
  
Ready-to-use CI/CD pipelines
 Infrastructure as Code with Ansible
 Production-ready Docker setup
 Health check endpoints out of the box
 Organized requirements structure
 Pre-configured testing environment
  
📦 Getting Started
 Super simple:
 bash
 git clone https://github.com/Amirrdoustdar/pyservice.git cd pyservice python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements/development.txt python manage.py migrate python manage.py runserver 
 Or with Docker:
 bash
 docker-compose up -d 
 That's it! You have a running API with docs at /api/docs/
 🎪 Available Endpoints
  
/api/v1/health/ - Health check
 /api/docs/ - Interactive API documentation
  
🤔 Why I Built This
 I was tired of setting up the same infrastructure for every new microservice project. Docker configs, CI/CD pipelines, Ansible playbooks - it's all repetitive work. So I created this template to make life easier for myself and hopefully for others too.
 🛣️ What's Next?
 Planning to add:
  
JWT Authentication
 Rate limiting with Redis
 Celery for async tasks
 PostgreSQL docker service
 Monitoring with Prometheus
 More comprehensive examples
  
📚 Tech Stack
  
Python 3.8+
 Django & Django REST Framework
 Docker & Docker Compose
 GitHub Actions
 Ansible
 pytest

<div class="md">I&#39;m building a website which has a form where you login using email OTP. Basically the form initially has a user ID field and a submit button.

<div class="md">Hi everyone, I’m working with Django and I’ve run into a limitation when using <code>inlineformset_factory</code>. It works great for simple parent to child relationships, but when the data model becomes more complex, such as parent to child to grandchild, Django doesn’t provide a native way to manage everything within a single form.

Hi everyone,
 I’m working with Django and I’ve run into a limitation when using inlineformset_factory. It works great for simple parent to child relationships, but when the data model becomes more complex, such as parent to child to grandchild, Django doesn’t provide a native way to manage everything within a single form.
 I was wondering if anyone has faced this scenario before and knows of any library, pattern, or general approach that helps handle deeper relational form structures like this in Django.
 Any tips or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, everyone. I've done a bunch of googling, but haven't been able to find a satisfactory answer. I'm hoping somebody here can help me. I'm trying to send an Excel file from a static folder to the user. Here's what's happening (some psuedo-code to follow). 
  
Users input a bunch of information in front end
 They click a button with an onlick that calls an AJAX function to send it to the back-end
 Data is received from the AJAX call via "if request.method == "POST:..."
 Pandas does a bunch of stuff with that data
 Dataframe.to_excel(...) writes it to a static folder
 I redirect to another view function that returns send_file(...)
  
No exceptions are thrown. I've added a bunch of prints to try to follow the programs progress and everything seems to execute as expected: data is grabbed, pandas does its thing, the redirect happens. If I run this while I have dev tools open in Chrome (or Edge) I can actually see the view function that contains the call to send_file(...) in the "Network" tab and if I double-click it it will download as it should. After downloading it looks like steps 1-5 above worked as expected too, everything ran expected. So, why won't send_file(...) send the file?
 Sample code:
 app.route('/main', methods=['GET','POST']) def main(): if request.method == 'POST': try: updates = request.data # get AJAX data updates = json.loads(updates, strict=False) # JSON -> dict df = some_pandas_function(updates) # do some pandas stuff df.to_excel(os.path.join(static_directory, filename), index=False) # create Excel file return redirect(url_for('download_file')) # redirect to download view except Exception as e: print(e.args) print(traceback.format_exc()) app.route('/download-file') def download_file(): filename = session['filename'] # the filename is stored in the session file_path = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(static_directory, filename)) # the path of the file to send return send_file(file_path, as_attachment=True, download_name=filename)

Working on a project that needed different caching strategies for different endpoints. fastapi-cache2 felt too limiting, raw redis-py meant too much boilerplate.
 So I made fastapi-rc. It's definitely nothing super special or groundbreaking, but the main difference is you get three approaches:
 Pattern 1: Direct Redis access Full control for complex operations (bulk invalidation, pipelines, etc)
 Pattern 2: CacheService wrapper Handles common patterns automatically:
  
Cache-aside (get_or_set)
 Automatic serialization with Pydantic models
 Pattern based invalidation
 TTL management with jitter
  
Pattern 3: Custom cache dependencies Define caching strategy once, inject everywhere:
 async def get_user_cache(redis: RedisClient) -> CacheService[User]: return CacheService( redis, namespace="users", model=User, default_ttl=600, use_jitter=True, ) UserCache = Annotated[CacheService[User], Depends(get_user_cache)] 
 All three patterns use FastAPI's Depends() so it feels native. 
 Out of the box:
  
Connection pooling with configurable size
 Retry logic with exponential backoff
 Health checks
 Graceful degradation if Redis unavailable
  
Type safety with generics. CacheService[User] enforces return type.
 Install: pip install fastapi-rc
 Source: https://github.com/CarterPerez-dev/fastapi-rc
 I just built it for one of my projects then decided I might as well make it a package, so lmk what you think or if you have any feedback.

 KCstudio Launchpad is the Bash TUI Platform I build for hosting fullstack apps with ease; secured, easy to maintain and manage while keeping an eye on the vps which KCstudio Launchpad makes interactive and helpful.
 I build this to solve my own problems. Now i open sourced it to give back.
 Please try it out on a fresh Ubuntu 24.04 VPS and let me know your opinions!
 Its free under MIT!
 It uses FastAPI for some boilerplate backend apps, but you can also just swap it out to your custom code!
 GitHub: https://github.com/kelvincdeen/KCstudio-Launchpad
 Install v2.0 using this:  wget https://github.com/kelvincdeen/kcstudio-launchpad/releases/latest/download/kcstudio-launchpad.deb && \ sudo apt install ./kcstudio-launchpad.deb

PDF utility APIs (encryption, decryption, watermark, compression, redaction) — ready for production

<div class="md">Generating PDFs usually sucks because you&#39;re stuck concatenating HTML strings in your backend.

Hey everyone,
 After building multiple FastAPI projects, I realized I was spending the same 1–3 weeks every time on the exact same stuff:
  
JWT auth & user management
 Stripe subscriptions + webhooks
 Email flows
 Background tasks (Celery)
 Database setup & migrations
 Deployment boilerplate
  
So I end up building a production ready FastAPI template that I now reuse for all my projects.
 It includes:
  
FastAPI + SQLAlchemy + Alembic
 JWT auth (email + social-ready)
 Stripe billling (subscriptions, webhooks)
 Background jobs with Celery
 Email infrastructure
 Docker + deployment setup
  
The goal isn’t to “teach FastAPI” - it’s for people who already know it and just want to ship faster.
 I’ve been using it in real projects and recently cleaned it up into something reusable.
 here you can find it: https://fastlaunchapi.dev
 what’s the part of fastapi you hate rebuilding the most?
