Hi guys and gals. I've been building a new web application with my business partner. We're using Django and postreSQL. We needed a restful API as we wanted the back end to be completely decoupled from the front end. We ended up going with Tastypie over DRF due to the former being seemingly less complex and easier to get rolling. I've used DRF in the past and found it to have somewhat of a steeper learning curve compared to Tastypie. The way tastypie has you define resources seems a lot more intuitive to me than the way DRF does so.
Despite my experience, it seems like DRF is by far the more popular choice for new applications. I was wondering if anyone could offer some insights into why this is the case. Does DRF offer more highly optimized queries? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
