I'm working to improve the freely available documentation for Django. The official docs are great, but sometimes you just want a quick code example to see how something works.
 In my cheat sheet (it's kinda grown up into a more in-depth article) I cover some of these topics:
  
ORM and model queries.
 Basic encryption.
 Building auth views.
 Management commands.
 Forms.
 Tailwind setup and more
  
Learn more here. 
 Still a work in progress, so any suggestions or comments are most welcome. My goal is to add a valuable resource, almost like a pocket reference, to help new Django devs.
 I'll soon be covering DRF and other concepts as well.

Django cheat sheet tutorial to help you remember the essentials

<div class="md">Background to the question and the question itself So I think it&#39;s best if you have a look at this mp4 I recorded of what my site already does. This is just a public google drive link: <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cwvkN5prCDYBsRL4bjUfmotzdaQL74Ph/view?usp=sharing">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cwvkN5prCDYBsRL4bjUfmotzdaQL74Ph/view?usp=sharing</a> As you can see in the MP4, when I click a word, it makes the form pop up on the right. That word is then shown in that form for submission. My question is, how do I make it so you can ALSO cursor-highlight a section of the text to pass it to the forms? What I already tried That text is wrapped in this: <pre><code>&lt;div id=&quot;current_text&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 20px; margin-top: 50px&quot;&gt; {{ text_content |hoverable_words:text_id }} &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> Where text_content is the lorem ipsum text passed through a filter to make each highlightable/clickable. That is to say, CSS highlight, not text cursor highlighting. I had read that &#39;onselection&#39; is an event that triggers when you highlight stuff, so I made it an hx-trigger for the &quot;current_text&quot; div that contains the text. However, this just made that fire no matter what I did: clicked the div&#39;s background, clicked the words, whatever. I suspect it was a problem with how the event might have been bubbling up, but I&#39;m not sure. Anyways, I&#39;ll link and show what I got so far to make this happen. Disclaimers <ul> <li>Yes I know the code and UI is terrible. I&#39;m very much a functionality-first programmer, to refactor and prettify later.</li> <li>I color my divs so I can see them, it helps me troubleshoot CSS stuff.</li> <li>The context doesn&#39;t really matter for this question but if you must know, it&#39;s an app to help with constructing languages.</li> <li>I was gonna ask this later in a separate post, but if someone wants to tell me how I can handle events in the page without iterating through every word of my text again, that would be great But since it works, it&#39;s fine for now.

Background to the question and the question itself
 So I think it's best if you have a look at this mp4 I recorded of what my site already does. This is just a public google drive link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cwvkN5prCDYBsRL4bjUfmotzdaQL74Ph/view?usp=sharing
 As you can see in the MP4, when I click a word, it makes the form pop up on the right. That word is then shown in that form for submission. My question is, how do I make it so you can ALSO cursor-highlight a section of the text to pass it to the forms?
 What I already tried
 That text is wrapped in this:
 <div id="current_text" style="font-size: 20px; margin-top: 50px"> {{ text_content |hoverable_words:text_id }} </div> 
 Where text_content is the lorem ipsum text passed through a filter to make each highlightable/clickable. That is to say, CSS highlight, not text cursor highlighting. I had read that 'onselection' is an event that triggers when you highlight stuff, so I made it an hx-trigger for the "current_text" div that contains the text. However, this just made that fire no matter what I did: clicked the div's background, clicked the words, whatever. I suspect it was a problem with how the event might have been bubbling up, but I'm not sure.
 Anyways, I'll link and show what I got so far to make this happen.
 Disclaimers
 
Yes I know the code and UI is terrible. I'm very much a functionality-first programmer, to refactor and prettify later.
 I color my divs so I can see them, it helps me troubleshoot CSS stuff.
 The context doesn't really matter for this question but if you must know, it's an app to help with constructing languages.
 I was gonna ask this later in a separate post, but if someone wants to tell me how I can handle events in the page without iterating through every word of my text again, that would be great But since it works, it's fine for now. But hey I'll take refactoring advice early.
 
Link to Repo and Relevant Files
 https://github.com/MatthewRicci12/conlangwebapp/tree/main/conlangapp
 
views.py
 
The view that actually generates this is user_clicks_text(request, text_id)
 I am incredibly new to Django but have some React chops, so I might be a bit Reactbrained in how 90% of it is just seeing if I have certain 'state', but basically I'm just checking if a bunch of crap has happened. If a form has been selected and which one, if the form is already up, if a token was selected, etc. 
 
extract_text.html (what I've shown in the video)
 <div id="extract_text_master_container"> {% load hoverable_words %} <div id="current_text" style="font-size: 20px; margin-top: 50px"> {{ text_content |hoverable_words:text_id }} </div> .... {% if form_up %} {% include 'partials/current_form.html' with form_div_context=form_div_context only%} {% endif %}
 
 The text, the lorem ipsum, is simply passed through a filter so everything can be clickable/highlightable. That filter is below.
 
hoverable_words.py
 @register.filter def hoverable_words(text, text_id): words = re.split(r'(\s+)', text) # preserves whitespace result = '' for token in words: if token.strip(): url = reverse('user-clicks-text', args=[text_id]) result += f'{token}' else: result += token return mark_safe(result)
 
 This simply makes everything highlightable and makes the click submit some 'state' info which, again, I think might be a bit too Reactbrained. I know you CAN use React with Django but I'd rather just keep on using HTMX.
 
current_form.html
 
Not super relevant, but it's that blue-backgrounded div with the actual forms.
 EDIT: Markdown on reddit is hard, looking at the actual github files themselves is probably clearest.

Django on vercel

<div class="md">I just shipped ArchUnitPython, a library that lets you enforce architectural rules in Python projects through automated tests. The problem it solves: as codebases grow, architecture erodes. Someone imports the database layer from the presentation layer, circular dependencies creep in, naming conventions drift. Code review catches some of it, but not all, and definitely not consistently. This problem has always existed but is more important than ever in Claude Code, Codex times. LLMs break architectural rules all the time. So I built a library where you define your architecture rules as tests. Two quick examples: ```python <h1>No circular dependencies in services</h1> rule = project_files(&quot;src/&quot;).in_folder(&quot;/services/&quot;).should().have_no_cycles() assert_passes(rule) ``` ```python <h1>Presentation layer must not depend on database layer</h1> rule = project_files(&quot;src/&quot;) .in_folder(&quot;/presentation/&quot;) .should_not() .depend_on_files() .in_folder(&quot;/database/&quot;) assert_passes(rule) ``` This will run in pytest, unittest, or whatever you use, and therefore be automatically in your CI/CD. If a commit violates the architecture rules your team has decided, the CI will fail. Hint: this is exactly what the famous ArchUnit Java library does, just for Python - I took inspiration for the name is of course. Let me quickly address why this over linters or generic code analysis? Linters catch style issues. This catches structural violations — wrong dependency directions, layering breaches, naming convention drift. It&#39;s the difference between &quot;this line looks wrong&quot; and &quot;this module shouldn&#39;t talk to that module.&quot; Some key features: <ul> <li>Dependency direction enforcement &amp; circular dependency detection</li> <li>Naming convention checks (glob + regex)</li> <li>Code metrics: LCOM cohesion, abstractness, instability, distance from main sequence</li> <li>PlantUML diagram validation — ensure code matches your architecture diagrams</li> <li>Custom rules &amp; metrics</li> <li>Zero runtime dependencies, uses only Python&#39;s ast module</li> <li>Python 3.10+</li> </ul> Very curious what you think! <a href="https://github.com/LukasNiessen/ArchUnitPython">https://github.com/LukasNiessen/ArchUnitPython</a> </div> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/trolleid"> /u/trolleid </a> <a href="https://github.com/LukasNiessen/ArchUnitPython">[link]</a> &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/djangolearning/comments/1sn50vd/i_built_archunit_for_python_enforce_architecture/">[comments]</a>

Hey everyone,
 I’m a huge fan of FastAPI. The fact that it generates an OpenAPI spec out of the box is its true superpower. But I noticed that while we get amazing documentation (Swagger UI / ReDoc) for free, we still have to manually build the internal tools, dashboards, and admin panels to actually use the data easily.
 So I built the other half of the equation.
 UIGen - point it at your FastAPI /openapi.json URL, and get a fully interactive React frontend in seconds.
 npx @uigen-dev/cli serve http://127.0.0.1:8000/openapi.json
 # UI is live at http://localhost:4400
 How it fits the FastAPI ecosystem
 FastAPI is all about types and specs. UIGen follows that philosophy:
  
Pydantic Validation: Because your spec includes the constraints from your Pydantic models, UIGen automatically builds Zod validation on the frontend to match.
 Interactive, not just Docs: Swagger UI is for testing endpoints. UIGen is for managing resources. It handles the "ListView -> DetailView -> EditForm" flow as a cohesive app.
  
What it generates (from your FastAPI code)
  
Sidebar nav mapped to your API tags/resources.
 Smart Tables with sorting, pagination, and filtering (derived from your query params).
 Dynamic Forms derived from your Pydantic models.
 Detail Views with related resource links.
 Auth UI - handles Bearer tokens and credential injection via a built-in proxy.
 Wizards: Large models are automatically split into multi-step forms.
 Complex Actions: Non-CRUD endpoints show up as custom action buttons.
  
How it works
 It parses your /openapi.json into a custom Intermediate Representation (IR). A pre-built React SPA (shadcn/ui + TanStack) reads that IR and renders the UI. A Vite dev server serves the app and proxies API calls to your FastAPI backend, handling CORS headers so you don't have to fiddle with middleware during dev.
 Honest Limitations
  
Circular Models: If you have deeply nested recursive Pydantic models, resolution might skip the deepest levels.
 Edit View: Works best if you have a standard GET /{id} endpoint for your items.
 And many other edge cases.
  
Try it now
 If you have a FastAPI app running locally:
 npx @uigen-dev/cli serve http://localhost:8000/openapi.json
 Or try it on one of the example yaml files in the repo
  
GitHub: https://github.com/darula-hpp/uigen
 npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@uigen-dev/cli
  
Would love to hear thoughts from the FastApi community. Of course, this isn't meant to replace a custom consumer-facing frontend, but for internal tools, rapid prototyping, or providing a UI for your API consumers, it’s a massive time-saver.
 Happy coding!

I got tired of Easy-RSA and built FastPKI: a fully async, API-driven PKI management system on top of FastAPI + SQLModel
 GitHub: https://github.com/jsenecal/fastpki Docs: https://jsenecal.github.io/fastpki/
 What it does:
  
Create and manage Certificate Authorities with intermediate CA hierarchies and path length constraints
 Issue and revoke server, client, and CA certificates via a clean RESTful API
 Multi-tenant via organizations, with RBAC (SUPERUSER / ADMIN / USER) and per-user capability flags for fine-grained cert operations
 SQLite for dev, PostgreSQL + asyncpg for prod
 Alembic migrations, Docker + Compose support, pre-built GHCR image
  
Stack:
  
FastAPI + SQLModel (async throughout with aiosqlite/asyncpg)
 Pydantic v2, Alembic, cryptography lib
 uv for packaging, ruff for linting/formatting, mypy for type checking
 279 tests, ~90% coverage
  
Built with Claude Code, but not totally vibecoded - every design decision was intentional and it's battle-tested in a real production telecom environment. The permission model, CA hierarchy constraints, and async DB layer were all deliberate choices.
 Currently at v0.3.5. Feedback and PRs welcome.

I did a thing: FastPKI - A proper REST API for PKI management (Easy-RSA alternative)

<table> <tr><td> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/FastAPI/comments/1sn4qdw/i_built_archunit_for_python_enforce_architecture/"> <img src="https://external-preview.redd.it/QEMbFJik1ifoXLHmdkjeFhYNxvKZbC_flyGhEeS-RUY.png?width=640&amp;crop=smart&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=02b5a571796257d8389a6e1300584c7199cc441e" alt="I built ArchUnit for Python: enforce architecture rules as unit tests." title="I built ArchUnit for Python: enforce architecture rules as unit tests." /> </a> </td><td> <div class="md">I just shipped ArchUnitPython, a library that lets you enforce architectural rules in Python projects through automated tests. The problem it solves: as codebases grow, architecture erodes. Someone imports the database layer from the presentation layer, circular dependencies creep in, naming conventions drift. Code review catches some of it, but not all, and definitely not consistently. This problem has always existed but is more important than ever in Claude Code, Codex times. LLMs break architectural rules all the time. So I built a library where you define your architecture rules as tests. Two quick examples: ```python <h1>No circular dependencies in services</h1> rule = project_files(&quot;src/&quot;).in_folder(&quot;/services/&quot;).should().have_no_cycles() assert_passes(rule) ``` ```python <h1>Presentation layer must not depend on database layer</h1> rule = project_files(&quot;src/&quot;) .in_folder(&quot;/presentation/&quot;) .should_not() .depend_on_files() .in_folder(&quot;/database/&quot;) assert_passes(rule) ``` This will run in pytest, unittest, or whatever you use, and therefore be automatically in your CI/CD. If a commit violates the architecture rules your team has decided, the CI will fail. Hint: this is exactly what the famous ArchUnit Java library does, just for Python - I took inspiration for the name is of course. Let me quickly address why this over linters or generic code analysis? Linters catch style issues. This catches structural violations — wrong dependency directions, layering breaches, naming convention drift. It&#39;s the difference between &quot;this line looks wrong&quot; and &quot;this module shouldn&#39;t talk to that module.&quot; Some key features: <ul> <li>Dependency direction enforcement &amp; circular dependency detection</li> <li>Naming convention checks (glob + regex)</li> <li>Code metrics: LCOM cohesion, abstractness, instability, distance from main sequence</li> <li>PlantUML diagram validation — ensure code matches your architecture diagrams</li> <li>Custom rules &amp; metrics</li> <li>Zero runtime dependencies, uses only Python&#39;s ast module</li> <li>Python 3.10+</li> </ul> Very curious what you think! <a href="https://github.com/LukasNiessen/ArchUnitPython">https://github.com/LukasNiessen/ArchUnitPython</a> </div> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/trolleid"> /u/trolleid </a> <a href="https://github.com/LukasNiessen/ArchUnitPython">[link]</a> &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/FastAPI/comments/1sn4qdw/i_built_archunit_for_python_enforce_architecture/">[comments]</a> </td></tr></table>

I got tired of “let’s build something together” going nowhere, so I tried this

<div class="md">I wanted high speed communication between multiple scripts of mine. Long ago i had started to use fastapi for that purpose and then i just got into modular monolithic architecture for web UIs. but then as i kept doing things i didnt feel like that is satisfactory recently i was kinda intrested to build native applications and wanted IPC and i googled it first didnt find anything simple enough for me to just use out of the box. like grpc too complex i tried using it once but was complex for my use case and added unnecessary friction. and then to go for simpler microservice architecture rather than multiple fastapi servers/workers in future for my web uis i thought wont this be simpler and have come out with a simpler library for making a more microservices kinda architecture and just wrap the calls in fastapi for distributed. With regular setups it kinda gets more complex to implement IPC this library abstracts a lot of that and makes it feel almost like fastapi on provider side and on consumer side it somewhat like requests. With my current system i believe it is simpler to build Fully distributed mircoservices and then use them through a single fastapi server. Like i can have 10 seperate services which all do different things and then u can have a fastapi server which send requests to differnt process on same device or distributed and just use them without worrying about how to communicate and you can restart any microservice and it wont matter to the fastapi server, if you use load balanced events then you can even have 0 downtime updates to code.

I've been building in Django for a long time and I love the framework, but some things have always bugged me:
  
Typing is exceptionally painful...and getting proper type safety across a Django project is a fight
 the ORM leaks throughout your project: it's easy to chain ORM methods in a view, a serializer, a template tag, a Celery task, etc and N+1s end up being difficult to find
 models become god objects: custom managers, save overrides, signal handlers, computed properties, validation logic, your models attract everything until they're 500 lines of tangled responsibilities.
 tests become slow over time because you either hit the DB for everything or mock too aggressively: this is because there's no clear encapsulated layers.
  
and a ton of other stuff including aesthetics...
 Anyway, the short version of my solution is to push all ORM work into repositories that return Pydantic DTOs. Services get repos via constructor injection and contain pure business logic with zero model imports. Your views become one-liners. Every layer boundary is typed, and each layer is independently testable.
 Some of the opinions:
  
Prefixed ULID primary keys: double-clickable Stripe-style IDs like ord_01jq3v... on every model.
 Models are dumb but aesthetic: Meta first, fields in a strict order (identifiers, times, status, domain, relations), all indexes and constraints declared explicitly in Meta, zero business logic.
 Repositories return DTOs, never querysets so the ORM never leaks past this layer. This is where 90% of Django's typing hassles end.
 Services own the business logic injected via https://svcs.hynek.me, tested without a database by mocking the repo. This makes tests super fast and composable.
 Thin django-ninja routes give you input validation and OpenAPI for free, handlers are just calling services get(MyService).do_thing() in a DI-esque way.
 Reliable signals via Celery side-effects enqueued inside the DB transaction so rollbacks are respected. This gets us pretty close to a DBOS or Temporal. Adapted from https://hakibenita.com/django-reliable-signals.
 Three test layers the repos test against a real DB, service against mocked repos, API through mocked services. This keeps the tests fast and clean.
  
Disclaimer: These are super opinionated. They won't be everyone's cup of tea, and that's fine. But they've held up well on large-scale projects and I thought they might be useful to others who are looking for a clean way to structure Django beyond the "everything in views.py" stage.

After 15 years of building production Django apps, these are the patterns I keep using... (packaged as Agent skills)

<div class="md">Trying to get a clearer picture of what people are actually running for background task processing in Django projects right now. Celery has been the go-to answer for so long that it&#39;s worth asking whether that&#39;s still the right first choice or just habit at this point. For smaller projects, Celery is a lot of infrastructure for what might be a handful of async tasks.

How are you handling background tasks in Django right now — is Celery still the default?

<div class="md">I&#39;ve been working on <a href="https://github.com/djust-org/djust">djust</a> for a while and just wrapped up the 0.4 series, so figured I&#39;d share where things are at. The short version: it&#39;s a Phoenix LiveView-style framework for Django. You write Python, get reactive UIs over WebSocket. A Rust VDOM engine handles the diffing and DOM patching. No API layer, no React/Vue, no webpack. Here&#39;s what a basic view looks like: <pre><code>class CounterView(LiveView): template_name = &quot;counter.html&quot; def mount(self, request, **kwargs): self.count = 0 @event_handler def increment(self, **kwargs): self.count += 1 &lt;h1&gt;{{ count }}&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;button dj-click=&quot;increment&quot;&gt;+1&lt;/button&gt; </code></pre> Click the button, count updates over WebSocket. That&#39;s it. The big additions in 0.4 were around making common UI patterns work without writing any JavaScript. So now you can do stuff like: <pre><code>&lt;input dj-input=&quot;search&quot; dj-debounce=&quot;300&quot;&gt; &lt;div dj-shortcut=&quot;ctrl+k:open_search, escape:close_modal&quot;&gt; &lt;button dj-click=&quot;save&quot; dj-disable-with=&quot;Saving...&quot; dj-lock&gt; &lt;div dj-click-away=&quot;close_dropdown&quot;&gt; </code></pre> Debounce, throttle, keyboard shortcuts, click-away, disable-with. All just HTML attributes. We also added the ability for the server to push JS commands to the browser directly: <pre><code>@event_handler def open_panel(self, **kwargs): self.push_commands( JS.add_class(&quot;active&quot;, to=&quot;#panel&quot;) .focus(&quot;#search-input&quot;) ) </code></pre> Built on top of that, there&#39;s a <code>TutorialMixin</code> that lets you define a guided onboarding tour as a Python list and the framework handles all the highlighting, positioning, and step progression. Probably overkill for most apps but it was a fun way to prove out the server-driven UI primitives. The other big chunk of work was stability. About 15 bug fixes for things people actually hit when building real apps: private attributes getting wiped between WebSocket events, Python types like <code>set()</code> and <code>Decimal</code> failing to serialize, VDOM patcher edge cases. Each one has regression tests now. For the next release (0.5), we&#39;re working on a component/templating system with pre-built UI pieces and an auth system, which should make it a lot more practical to start a new project without wiring everything up yourself.

 Click the button, count updates over WebSocket. That's it.
 The big additions in 0.4 were around making common UI patterns work without writing any JavaScript. So now you can do stuff like:
 <input dj-input="search" dj-debounce="300"> <div dj-shortcut="ctrl+k:open_search, escape:close_modal"> <button dj-click="save" dj-disable-with="Saving..." dj-lock> <div dj-click-away="close_dropdown"> 
 Debounce, throttle, keyboard shortcuts, click-away, disable-with. All just HTML attributes.
 We also added the ability for the server to push JS commands to the browser directly:
 @event_handler def open_panel(self, **kwargs): self.push_commands( JS.add_class("active", to="#panel") .focus("#search-input") )

Hey everyone,
 Fullstack dev here. If you’re like me, you probably love the Django Admin. It’s the "killer feature" that makes Django so productive. But as soon as you move to a decoupled frontend (React/Vue/Svelte) and a REST API (DRF), you lose that "instant UI" magic and end up rebuilding the same CRUD tables and forms over and over.
 I built something to bring that "instant UI" workflow to any API, regardless of the backend.
 UIGen - point it at your OpenAPI spec (generated by drf-spectacular or similar), and get a fully interactive React frontend in seconds.
 npx @uigen-dev/cli serve ./openapi.yaml
 # UI is live at http://localhost:4400
 Why use this if I have Django Admin?
 Django Admin is amazing, but it’s tied to the DB and server-side templates. UIGen is different:
  
Decoupled: It talks to your API endpoints, respecting your DRF serializers, permissions, and business logic.
 Modern SPA: It’s a full React SPA (shadcn/ui + TanStack Table) that feels like a premium SaaS product.
 Framework Agnostic: Today it’s React, but since it uses a custom Intermediate Representation (IR), I'm already working on Svelte and Vue renderers. Same spec, different frontend stack.
  
How it works
 It parses your spec and converts it into an Intermediate Representation (IR) , a typed description of your resources, operations, schemas, auth, and relationships. A pre-built React SPA reads that IR and renders the appropriate views. A Vite dev server serves the SPA and proxies API calls to your real backend, handling CORS and Auth injection automatically.
 What it generates
  
Sidebar nav auto-built from your resources.
 Table views with sorting, pagination, and filtering.
 Create/edit forms with Zod validation (derived from your schema).
 Detail views with related resource links.
 Auth flows 
  
- 
  
Bearer, API Key, HTTP Basic, and even full credential-based login detection.
 Custom action buttons for non-CRUD endpoints (e.g., POST /orders/{id}/cancel).
 Dashboard with resource counts.
  
Current Limitation
  
Circular Refs: Deeply nested circular $refs may degrade gracefully rather than resolving perfectly.
 Edit Pre-population: Requires a GET /resource/{id} endpoint.
 Sub-resources: Parent-child navigation is currently focused on the detail pages.
 Pixel Perfect: It’s not a design tool; it’s a functional, professional tool.
 **And many other edge cases.
  
Try it on your DRF API
 If you use drf-spectacular, just download your schema and run:
 npx @uigen-dev/cli serve ./schema.yaml
  
GitHub: https://github.com/darula-hpp/uigen
 npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@uigen-dev/cli
  
Would love to hear thoughts from the Django community. Of course, this isn't meant to replace a custom consumer-facing frontend, but for internal tools, rapid prototyping, or providing a UI for your API consumers, it’s a massive time-saver.
 Happy coding!

Django Admin but for any API? I built a tool that generates a React frontend from an OpenAPI spec.

<div class="md">in your opinion, what are the best and worst patterns to have in Django projects ? I’ve worked in many projects with different approaches: business logic in services classes; repository, many small functions to compound the business logic (one file with thousands of lines); business logic in models level; and use the built-in Django resources (mangers, forms and custom fields, class based views,custom middleware and so on).

I built a restaurant POS/ERP backend as my first serious Django project. It started as a learning exercise but ended up more complex than expected. Looking for feedback before I start applying for jobs.
 **Stack:** Django 6, PostgreSQL, Celery, Redis Streams, DRF, HTMX
 **What it does:**
 - Multi-tenant (multiple restaurant orgs, fully scoped)
 - Order lifecycle with status FSM (draft → paid → refunded/cancelled)
 - FIFO inventory with `select_for_update` row locking
 - Recipe system — prepared products deduct ingredients on sale
 - eKasa integration — actual Slovak fiscal API (NineDigit), async via Celery + Redis Streams device command outbox
 - Cashier UI (HTMX), shift management, cash drawer tracking
 - Accounting entries split by tender type (cash vs card)
 - 316 tests

 UPDATE — April 2026: acted on the feedback
 After posting I did a proper code review session and found several real bugs:
 Bugs fixed:
  
Cash payments were silently missing from the accounting ledger — record_sale was only called in the card path, not in _confirm_cash_payment. Added a regression test.
 record_stock_out was called twice on every sale — once inside deduct_stock, once in finalize_paid_order. Neutralized by get_or_create idempotency, but conceptually wrong.
 Celery periodic tasks were calling subtasks with .run() instead of .delay() — all *_for_all_orgs tasks were running synchronously, defeating the point of async workers.
 inspect.signature hack in OrderDetailApi — was detecting actor parameter at runtime instead of just fixing the signatures.
  
Other improvements:
  
Production security settings added to prod.py (HSTS, SSL redirect, secure cookies) — Django's --deploy check now passes clean.
 Runtime artifacts (celerybeat-schedule*) added to .gitignore.
  
Still a work in progress, but shipping fixes feels better than just shipping code.

Built a Django reference app for multi-tenant SSO with Cognito, Azure AD, and Okta

<div class="md">Hi everyone. I&#39;m a junior developer (2.5 YOE) working mostly solo for a small US-based startup, and I&#39;ve recently been running up against the issue of &quot;chains of events&quot; in Django, and would like to see how more experienced folks deal with it, and also learn whether it&#39;s a system design fault on my part or just one of the types of problems Django isn&#39;t best suited to handle. For context: the application integrates with several different external services; Stripe is the main one (it&#39;s a marketplace platform), and also other services for other types of payments, marketing, AWS services for notifications, geolocation data management, etc. We also support Organizations, with multiple users with different roles within them. When a user signs up, a bunch of things need to happen at the same time, including creating accounts on the various third-party services we use. I&#39;ve worked to keep most of the signup context data needed within regular Django models, for simplicity, but there are specific onboarding paths where I just cannot avoid having to create a Stripe Express account, _then_ a Service X account, _then_ an AWS SNS topic, etc. This creates a lengthy and brittle chain where if a single step fails, the user/organization ends up incorrectly configured, and is unable to use specific features of the platform. I also do not have much visibility into this process (poor observability configs on my part) and so I&#39;m often at a loss when something goes wrong. I&#39;m aware of atomic transactions, and while they help a lot, they do not make dealing with this chain concept easier. I&#39;m wondering how larger applications handle this. Do they move to an event-driven system instead of a monolithic one like what Django is meant for? How do they deal with third-party retries in lengthy onboarding flows? And how do you improve observability into this process, to aid debugging? Thanks in advance for your advice! </div> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/PyJacker16"> /u/PyJacker16 </a> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/django/comments/1sjm21s/dealing_with_side_effects_and_sequential_tasks_in/">[link]</a> &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/django/comments/1sjm21s/dealing_with_side_effects_and_sequential_tasks_in/">[comments]</a>

Hi everyone. I'm a junior developer (2.5 YOE) working mostly solo for a small US-based startup, and I've recently been running up against the issue of "chains of events" in Django, and would like to see how more experienced folks deal with it, and also learn whether it's a system design fault on my part or just one of the types of problems Django isn't best suited to handle.

AI and Developer Experience: Wagtail community survey

<div class="md">Hi everyone, I’ve been working on a project called pgproto and wanted to share it with the Django community to see if I’m headed in the right direction. In a lot of my projects, I use Protobuf for speed, but when it comes to the database, I usually ended up either storing them as blobs (which makes them unqueryable) or converting them to JSONB (which feels like it defeats the purpose of using a compact binary format). I wrote this C extension to allow Postgres to &quot;understand&quot; the <code>.proto</code> schema. It lets you: <ul> <li>Keep data in its compact binary form (about 60% smaller than JSONB in my tests).</li> <li>Query nested fields directly in SQL using operators similar to Django’s <code>JSONField</code> lookups (<code>#&gt;</code> and <code>-&gt;</code>).</li> <li>Index those fields so you don&#39;t lose lookup performance.</li> </ul> I’m still refining it, but I’m curious—does this solve a pain point for anyone else here? Or do most of you just stick with JSONB and accept the storage overhead?

Hi everyone,

 I wrote this C extension to allow Postgres to "understand" the .proto schema. It lets you:
  
Keep data in its compact binary form (about 60% smaller than JSONB in my tests).
 Query nested fields directly in SQL using operators similar to Django’s JSONField lookups (#> and ->).
 Index those fields so you don't lose lookup performance.
  
I’m still refining it, but I’m curious—does this solve a pain point for anyone else here? Or do most of you just stick with JSONB and accept the storage overhead?

 I’d really appreciate any feedback on the design or features!

I wrote a Postgres extension to handle Protobufs natively. Would love to know if this is useful for Django/gRPC setups.

I built a real-time browser game with Django and would really appreciate feedback.

<div class="md">I’m the solo developer behind a SaaS project called Invoice Parse. Currently, the entire project is built using traditional Django full-stack: Django Templates and HTML/Bootstrap. It works great, but as the application logic grows, I want to migrate the &quot;App&quot; portion (everything behind the login) to React for a more dynamic and responsive user experience. However, I want to keep my public-facing pages (Landing page, Pricing, About, etc.) strictly in Django Templates + Bootstrap. I want these pages to remain as lightweight as possible to render fast in the browser and keep SEO optimal. Additionally, I want to move towards a decoupled architecture. My goal is to have the React frontend in its own dedicated GitHub repository. This way, I can deploy new backend features (API updates) without needing to redeploy the frontend, and vice versa. I would love to hear from anyone who has navigated this transition! Specifically, I&#39;m looking for advice on: The Hybrid Approach: What is the best way to hand off the user from the Django-rendered landing pages to the decoupled React SPA upon login? Authentication: Since the public pages are Django templates, should I stick to standard Session Auth and pass the CSRF token to React, or is it better to switch strictly to JWT (like Django Rest Framework SimpleJWT) once they hit the React app? Repository Setup &amp; Deployment: What are the best practices for managing this split? (e.g., serving the React app via Vercel/Netlify while the Django API lives on Heroku/AWS, and handling CORS properly). Pitfalls: What are the &quot;gotchas&quot; or things you wish you knew before decoupling your frontend from Django? Any resources, tutorials, or personal experiences would be hugely appreciated.
