Overview

Django REST framework is a powerful and flexible toolkit for building Web APIs .

Some reasons you might want to use REST framework:

• The Web browsable API is a huge usability win for your developers.

• Authentication policies including optional packages for OAuth1 and OAuth2.

• Serialization that supports both ORM and non-ORM data sources.

• Customizable all the way down - just use regular function-based views if you don’t need the more powerful features.

• Extensive documentation, and great community support.

There is a live example API for testing purposes, available here .
