Django REST framework
=====================

**Django REST framework makes it easy to build well-connected, self-describing RESTful Web APIs.**

**Author:** Tom Christie.  `Follow me on Twitter <https://twitter.com/_tomchristie>`_.

Overview
========

Features:

* Creates awesome self-describing *web browse-able* APIs.
* Clean, modular design, using Django's class based views.
* Easily extended for custom content types, serialization formats and authentication policies.
* Stable, well tested code-base.
* Active developer community.

Full documentation for the project is available at http://django-rest-framework.org

Issue tracking is on `GitHub <https://github.com/tomchristie/django-rest-framework/issues>`_.
General questions should be taken to the `discussion group <http://groups.google.com/group/django-rest-framework>`_.

We also have a `Jenkins service <http://jenkins.tibold.nl/job/djangorestframework1/>`_ which runs our test suite. 

Requirements:

* Python (2.5, 2.6, 2.7 supported)
* Django (1.2, 1.3, 1.4-alpha supported)
