Storing arbitrarily complex Boolean queries (think Elasticsearch's query syntqx). While this could be done in SQL tables, there are no gains with referential intregity and while there would be some in consistency, I don't think th

Huge thanks Angular team. A few years ago, my team desperately needed to pick and run with a frontend framework. After a couple months to learn the Angular fundamentals, we haven't looked back. We find the framework to be extremely int

Very cool! Yeah, it seems like web frameworks could do more in terms of linking up HTTP contracts with the arguments to the controller/view/whatever. Though, sometimes you need a little more flexibility. For instance, often when u

I've followed GraphQL from a distance. Besides the typing part (which it seems like you can get from OpenAPI to some extent), the other big benefit seems to be being able to cater to many different and unpredictable use cases. But I ha

I second this. Expose your backend with DRF ( https://www.django-rest-framework.org/ ). Once you get over initial learning curve, you'll have an extremely powerful and flexible library for building your backend.
