In this situation, something you might also consider is FastAPI https://fastapi.tiangolo.com (which is based on Starlette https://www.starlette.io).
For the database you'll probably need to use SqlAlchemy vs Django ORM, but if you're serving static content and just need to provide an API it is definitely a leaner and more performant approach for supporting frontend applications. If you are using templates at all, then there's either FastAPI+Jinja2, or Django+DRF as recommended by others. I've had this choice a couple of times, and while sqlalchemy is ok, I always miss having Django's ORM which does a lot of work auto-magically - sqlalchemy being somewhat more explicit. FastAPI is pretty cool though, especially having redoc/openapi support out of the box with no additional requirements. If you stay with Django, note that you aren't actually required to use DRF and have to tackle yet another complex framework. Most of the class based views assume HTMLResponse, but if you avoid using those - and TemplateView and subclasses in particular - you can explicitly return JsonResponse in your views instead.
