APIs with Django: Design, Develop, and Deploy High-Performance REST APIs Using Python and DRF (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798280170711)

Build powerful, secure, and scalable REST APIs with Django and Django REST Framework - the professional way. Whether you're developing APIs for a frontend application, a mobile app, or third-party integrations, this book gives you everything you need to move from concept to deployment with clarity, control, and confidence.

APIs with Django is a hands-on, deeply technical guide to designing and delivering real-world APIs using Django, the Python web framework trusted by top engineering teams worldwide. You'll start with the fundamentals - understanding REST principles, crafting clean endpoints, and modeling your data with Django ORM - and progress to building advanced features like token authentication, role-based access control, API versioning, pagination, background processing with Celery, and asynchronous endpoints with Django's async capabilities.

Through complete code examples, practical exercises, and production-grade patterns, this book goes far beyond scaffolding and covers what truly matters in modern API engineering:

• Building reliable serializers and reusable viewsets
• Validating, securing, and throttling requests
• Writing automated tests and ensuring coverage
• Managing migrations, deployments, and secrets
• Generating interactive API documentation with Swagger and ReDoc
• Structuring scalable projects and preparing for microservices

You'll also learn how to containerize your app using Docker, run it behind Gunicorn and Nginx, and automate your CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions-so you can deliver confidently and deploy continuously.

Whether you're a backend developer looking to sharpen your Django skills or a full-stack engineer responsible for shipping production APIs, this book doesn't just show you how to build endpoints-it teaches you how to build complete, professional-grade API systems that are clean, maintainable, well-documented, and ready for real-world use.

Start writing APIs that scale. Learn how to think like a backend engineer, build like a professional, and ship Django APIs you'll be proud to support in production. This book is your complete roadmap-from your first endpoint to a full-scale, deployed REST API system. Grab your copy now and take control of your API development workflow.
