Show HN: Django-Modern-Rest

sobolevn — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 10:26:05 +0000

Hi, my name is Nikita Sobolev, I am a CPython core dev, Django Software Foundation member, and maintainer of countless Python / Django opensource tools.

Now I am happy to present to you my new project.

Docs: https://django-modern-rest.rtfd.io/ Code: https://github.com/wemake-services/django-modern-rest/

Features:

- No AI slop, but built for the LLM era.

- Blazingly fast.

- Supports Django >= 4.2

- Supports `pydantic2`, `msgspec`, `attrs`, `dataclasses`, `TypedDict` as model schemas, but not bound to any of these libraries.

- Supports async Django without any `sync_to_async` calls inside, tested to work with free-threading builds.

- Fully typed and checked with `mypy`, `pyright`, and `pyrefly` in strict modes.

- Supports content negotiation, has default implementations for `json`, `msgpack`, SSE, Json Lines, and more.

- Strict schema validation of both requests and responses, including errors.

- Supports OpenAPI 3.1 / 3.2 semantic schema generation out of the box.

- Supports all your existing `django` primitives and packages, no custom runtimes.

- Great testing tools with `schemathesis`, `polyfactory`, `tracecov`, bundled `pytest` plugin, and default Django's testing primitives.

- 100% test coverage with 2000+ of carefully designed unit, integration, and property-based tests.

- High security standards.

- Built by the community for the community, not a single-person project.

- Great docs.

Show HN: Reinhardt – Django-style Rust framework; WASM+SSR from one DSL

kent8192 — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 13:00:56 +0000

Reinhardt is a Rust web framework where one component DSL compiles to both WASM (client) and server-rendered HTML — a single file describes both sides of a page, with no separate frontend codebase, no JS build toolchain, and no duplicated types across the client/server boundary.

It also bundles what Django/DRF users expect: an ORM with auto-generated migrations from #[model] macros, DI, auth, admin, REST, background tasks, and i18n. Feature flags let you pull in just what you need (minimal / standard / full), or import individual crates directly.

I built it after moving from Django/DRF to Rust and repeatedly re-assembling the same Axum + ORM + migrations + auth stack for every project.

Quickstart: https://reinhardt-web.dev/quickstart/

v0.1.0-rc.18 release: <https://github.com/kent8192/reinhardt-web/releases/tag/reinh...>

Crates.io (published as reinhardt-web; the shorter name was taken): https://crates.io/crates/reinhardt-web

Show HN: Django app for email-based learning platforms

payamnj — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 20:29:04 +0000

I built django-email-learning, an open-source Django app for running e-learning platforms where course content is delivered entirely via email rather than a web portal. Inspired by Darsnameh, an email-learning service that shut down in 2017. The core motivation is accessibility — email works in low-bandwidth environments, on any device, and is more resilient to censorship than web platforms. It's in beta (v0.2.54). To test the concept in production I built InboxAcademy.io on top of it, which currently hosts a course on using the package itself. Would love feedback on the architecture or general approach.

Show HN: Django-security-hunter – Django security scanner CLI

aburayhanalif — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 15:38:59 +0000

I built a lightweight CLI tool for Django and Django REST Framework projects to help detect common security issues early in development.

It focuses on problems like:

unsafe production settings exposed or misconfigured APIs missing security configurations common security risks in Django projects

The goal is to make security checks simple and part of everyday development or CI workflows.

Show HN: Reinhardt – Django/DRF-inspired full-stack web framework for Rust

kent8192 — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 14:07:01 +0000

Reinhardt is a full-stack web framework for Rust inspired by Django and DRF. It bundles HTTP, ORM, auth, DI, and background tasks into one crate — feature flags let you pull in only what you need (minimal/standard/full), or use individual crates.

Published as `reinhardt-web` on crates.io, imported as `reinhardt` in your code.

I built it after moving from Django/DRF to Rust and repeatedly assembling the same Axum + ORM + migrations + auth stack.

Two things I'd especially like feedback on: a built-in WASM+SSR reactive frontend (Pages), where a DSL-to-Rust codegen step (page!/head!/form! macros) produces both client WASM and server HTML from one source; and auto-generated migrations from #[model(...)] definitions.

Quickstart is here for anyone who wants to try it immediately: - Website: https://reinhardt-web.dev - Crates.io: https://crates.io/crates/reinhardt-web

v0.1.0-rc.15 (https://github.com/kent8192/reinhardt-web/releases/tag/reinh...), BSD 3-Clause. Looking for feedback on the API design, not production use yet.

Show HN: Web-based setup tool for Django Cookiecutter

data-leon — Sat, 28 Mar 2026 15:40:50 +0000

I made a simple browser-based tool for stepping through Cookiecutter Django project setup:

https://aisaastemplate.com/tools/django-cookiecutter/

Main reason: I kept repeating the same command-line flow when starting projects, and I’d occasionally mistype inputs or need to backtrack.

This is a small attempt to make that process smoother. It’s free, requires no login, and is meant for anyone who already uses or wants to try Django Cookiecutter.

I’ve been using Django Cookiecutter for a long time, and I’ve bought every edition of Two Scoops of Django, so this came from genuine appreciation for the project.

Feedback is very welcome.
