What it is

Strawberry Django is a library that allows you to use the Strawberry GraphQL framework within your Django applications, providing an easy way to build powerful APIs.

Strawberry Django offers a streamlined way for Django developers to incorporate GraphQL, leveraging existing models and authentication systems without significant refactoring.

When it fits — and when it doesn’t

A good fit for

  • Django developers looking to add GraphQL capabilities without rewriting their entire application

  • Projects requiring a robust backend with existing Django models and authentication systems

  • Teams that need to integrate modern frontend technologies with legacy Django backends

Look elsewhere if

  • Developers who are not already using or planning to use Django in their projects

  • Applications where the overhead of integrating GraphQL into an existing framework is undesirable

Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

  1. 01

    Limited documentation for advanced use cases

    Official documentation focuses on basic usage, lacks examples of complex queries and mutations

  2. 02

    Performance issues with large datasets

    Querying large datasets can lead to slow response times due to inefficient data fetching from Django ORM

What it does well

  • Seamless integration with Django ORM

  • Automatic schema generation from Django models

  • Support for Django authentication and permissions
