Interesting about the files vs db approach. I have been going back and fourth. I landed on db as well.

I'm still not sure. Would love thoguhts on this.. but in this new ai world we are in... is it better to go fullstack typescript? or go with proven mature frameworks? .net, ruby, django, etc? Seems TS is moving fast but maybe its time t

Is django the best backend batteries included framework at the moment?

is rill open source?

Agreed. When I watch the llm start to explore the db - it really does impress me. Can you expand on this: You can even incrementalize the schema description process itself by way of the system tables. Intentionally not providing a schema de

Not quite sold on this. I'm going to stick with pydantic ai and dbos/temporal/celery. I do not want to be vendor locked into one of these players. I want to work with absoluately any llm I want... I think we need to keep push

seems interesting. whos the target demo for this though?

When is MCP the right choice though? For example - letting internal users ask questions on top of datasets? Is it better to just offer the api openapi specs and let claude run wild? or provide an MCP with instructions?

So basically dont use django and vibe code your own framework?

Would love to see this. Django just makes life 1000x easier. Can architect an app with data models, api, openapi, etc. within an hour.

I like mikro orm - cool to see you use that. I do prefer django however. I see express as the backend. Why not nestjs? And are you using openapi at all for generating your frontend client? What i've discovered is - any backend + orm sh

whats your defacto now?

looks great

you mention hasura - is that open source? you are leaning on a product for migrations that are not open source is my main concern with the above comments.

Are you saying you'd start a new project with alembic/sqlalchemy nowadays?

by rick1290 1y ago
What about for the db? Prisma? Postgres?

Are you able to share some of the tech stack choices behind the scenes? React, fastapi, django, go, pydantic ai, ag-ui, firecrawl, vertex ai, etc. Would love to see the tools and frameworks others are deploying with.

Which pages are django?

by rick1290 1y ago
How does this compare to Django? I see you have quite a bit of Django content. How would you decide to use Litestar vs Django on a new greenfield project?

by rick1290 1y ago
whats your setup for the frontend? do you autogen your queries from DRF? do you prefer react headless over django templates?
25.
by rick1290 1y ago
Why? Isn't this easier to screw up the prod db?
26.
by rick1290 1y ago
Yeah, that is a bit disheartening. It’s a reminder of how vital it is to support open source tools, especially when they’re going up against massive, well-funded competitors. These projects often power the backbone of the internet and tech

Django, however, is wonderful for internal tooling, or anything where you need to plug in Python libraries. GIS is a clear win for Django, as well as custom BI work or data analytics Can you share more here? Would you go the route of django

Love django. Whats the consensus on best way to use django in 2025? I've been going the headless route. Django for the backend and using vite or nextjs on the frontend with openapi specs auto-generated.

by rick1290 1y ago
Love django. Its my go-to as well. I have gone django, drf, heyapi + vite/react. I do like templates for simple pages - but with ai now. Its pretty fast to build out your api completely with drf. Then autogen the api in vite. Once you
