SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill consolidates Django development patterns to help teams design scalable, maintainable Django applications.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured project layout: guides that separate config, apps, and tooling for clean architecture.
  • Pattern catalog: provides examples for split settings, serializers, viewsets, query patterns, caching, signals, and middleware.
  • Use case: from a monolith to a well-organized Django project with DRF APIs and production-grade settings.

Quick Start

Use the django-patterns skill to scaffold a production-ready Django project structure and implement a basic DRF-based API.

How do I structure a Django project with DRF for large teams?▼

Structure a Django project with DRF by separating configuration, applications, and tooling into clean architectural boundaries, applying pattern catalogs for viewsets, serializers, and split settings to support large team collaboration.

Can I use these Django patterns for production-grade caching and middleware?▼

These Django patterns apply directly to production-grade caching and middleware, providing ready-to-implement guidelines and example templates for configuring scalable apps across large teams.

What's the best way to optimize ORM queries and signals in Django?▼

The best way to optimize ORM queries and signals in Django is applying dedicated pattern catalogs that provide structure, query optimization, and configuration guidelines for maintainable production codebases.

When should I not use a monolithic Django project structure?▼

You should move away from a monolithic Django project structure when your codebase grows large, requiring split settings, organized DRF API serializers, and separated tooling to maintain scalability across large teams.

How do I scaffold a production-ready Django project with a basic DRF API?▼

Scaffold a production-ready Django project with a basic DRF API by applying the django-patterns skill to implement structured project layouts, split settings, and viewset templates for clean architecture.
