I've been working with Django for almost my whole career, since 1.1. It's a joy to use, and blows any other web framework I've used out of the water when it comes to actually just building stuff. Django is a fantastic boring[1] tool, and seeing boring updates like this is great. 1: http://mcfunley.com/choose-boring-technology

What do you use to write your front end Javascript?

Django fan here, if you're trying to use Django with react you may be interested in this: https://github.com/anchpop/cookiecutter-django

I wrote it for my own convenience but others may find it useful.

Not OP, but I've also been using Django for (more than) my whole career and I use React on the frontend.

If you're curious about the frontend path I took, it was roughly:

* jQuery with no framework

* Backbone (for a couple years)

* Backbone + Marionette (for a couple more years)

* Angular (for about a week)

* React (for the past few years)

Thanks for the input. Comments like these are insightful.

What do you think of Vue.js?

Not OP either, but I've been using Django REST framework with React.js, and I'm really enjoying it.

It is worth noting that Pyramid Web Framework is also awesome to use. I see it as a middle ground between Django and Flask. The scaffolds make some design decisions for project and you can pick from what you like the most. Pyramid allows for extensible applications and never gets in your way.

The most critical Python infrastructure (PyPi) is now built with it, if you haven't tried it give it a shot. It is one of most well thought out frameworks for python in my opinion.

I've made a tutorial for it: https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid-blogr/en/lat....

Vue looks nice, but nowdays I'd pick something like lit-element(lit-html) or stencil.

Any tips for how to use JWT authentication and get around CSRF tokens being in forms when combining DRF with a JS SPA UI?
