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 :)

I owe a huge debt of gratitude to all the wonderful companies and individuals who have been backing the project so generously, and making this possible.
