The landscape

Batteries included, production proven

Django provides a complete web framework: ORM with migration system, authentication with permissions, CSRF and XSS protection by default, and an admin interface for data management.

Django REST Framework extends this to API development with serialisers, viewsets, and browsable API documentation. The ecosystem is mature and battle-tested across thousands of production deployments.
