Django, REST and OpenAPI - a gentle introduction
Django is an all-parts-included framework that is one of the most popular ways of building a website in Python. But for many websites that's not enough - we also need a REST-based API with an OpenAPI specification so that other programs can read and work with our data. This talk will cover the Python packages that can provide these facilities and how to integrate them into your existing website.
