Advanced Django: Advanced Django Rest Framework

This continuation concentrates on an API after its first working endpoints exist. Tests, optimization and third-party libraries precede integration with JavaScript and React. The approximately nine-hour workload is useful when you want to inspect reliability and client behavior rather than repeat basic serializer setup.

What you will learn

• Write tests around REST Framework API behavior.
• Investigate performance and integration choices.
• Connect a JavaScript or React interface to an existing API.

Who this suits

Developers with Django and REST Framework foundations who want a more complete application workflow.

Before you enroll

Codio classifies the course as advanced. Take its API introduction first if serializers, viewsets or authentication are still unfamiliar.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Tool subscriptions, model API usage and cloud services may cost extra.

Put it into practice

Add tests for pagination and permissions to a sample API. Measure a repeated database query before and after an optimization, then exercise the endpoint from a small client.
