Kickstarting Django REST framework 3



In order to continue to drive the project forward, I'm launching a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the development of a major new release - Django REST framework 3.

Project details

This new release will allow us to comprehensively address some of the shortcomings of the framework, and will aim to include the following:

  • Faster, simpler and easier-to-use serializers.
  • An alternative admin-style interface for the browsable API.
  • Search and filtering controls made accessible in the browsable API.
  • Alternative API pagination styles.
  • Documentation around API versioning.
  • Triage of outstanding tickets.
  • Improving the ongoing quality and maintainability of the project.

Full details are available now on the project page.

If you're interested in helping make sustainable open source development a reality please visit the Kickstarter page and consider funding the project.

I can't wait to see where this takes us!

Many thanks to everyone for your support so far,

Tom Christie :)
