  • Typed API clients - Generate TypeScript / Python / Go clients from your DRF OpenAPI schema
  • Real-time WebSockets - Centrifugo integration included
  • gRPC streaming - Bidirectional streaming with WebSocket bridge
  • AI-native docs - First Django framework with MCP server for AI assistants
  • 8 enterprise apps - Save 18+ months of development

Configuration Example

Before: settings.py

# 200+ lines of untyped configuration
DEBUG = os.getenv('DEBUG', 'False') == 'True'  # ❌ Bug waiting to happen
DATABASE_PORT = os.getenv('DB_PORT', '5432')   # ❌ Still a string!

After: Django-CFG

from django_cfg import DjangoConfig, DatabaseConfig

class MyConfig(DjangoConfig):
    project_name: str = "My App"
    debug: bool = False  # ✅ Type-safe

    databases: dict[str, DatabaseConfig] = {
        "default": DatabaseConfig(
            name="${DB_NAME}",  # ✅ Validated at startup
            port=5432,          # ✅ Correct type
        )
    }
