Awesome web-browsable Web APIs.

Full documentation for the project is available at [https://www.django-rest-framework.org/][docs].

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][sandbox] is a huge usability win for your developers.
• [Authentication policies][authentication] including optional packages for [OAuth1a][oauth1-section] and [OAuth2][oauth2-section].
• [Serialization][serializers] that supports both [ORM][modelserializer-section] and [non-ORM][serializer-section] data sources.
• Customizable all the way down - just use [regular function-based views][functionview-section] if you don't need the [more][generic-views] [powerful][viewsets] [features][routers].
• [Extensive documentation][docs], and [great community support][group].

• Python (3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9)
• Django (2.2, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2)

We highly recommend and only officially support the latest patch release of each Python and Django series.
