- ✅ First-party analytics - Typed product events, goals, and ordered funnels without a third-party tracker
- ✅ 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
- ✅ Stripe payments - Checkout, webhooks, refunds out of the box (
django-cfg[payments]) - ✅ 8 enterprise apps - Save 18+ months of development

What you get instantly:
- 🎨 Django Admin (Unfold) →
http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ - 📡 Real-time WebSockets → Live updates
- 🔌 Auto-generated API clients → TypeScript / Python / Go
- 🐳 Docker Ready → Production configs
- 🖥️ Electron App → Desktop template
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
)
}
Full IDE autocomplete • Startup validation • Zero runtime errors
Features
🔒 Type-Safe Configuration
Pydantic v2 models replace error-prone settings.py - catch bugs before deployment.
🔌 Typed API Client Generation
Generate fully-typed TypeScript, Python, and Go clients straight from your DRF OpenAPI schema — no hand-written API code, no drift between backend and frontend.
python manage.py gen # generate clients from the live OpenAPI schema
python manage.py gen --ts # TypeScript only
📡 Real-Time WebSockets
Production-ready Centrifugo integration - live updates, notifications, presence tracking.
🌐 gRPC Microservices
Bidirectional streaming with automatic WebSocket bridge - perfect for real-time architectures.
💳 Payments Engine
Stripe-first payments app, production-lifted from a live SaaS: one-time checkout with idempotency, signature-verified webhooks with replay, refunds, reconciliation, and an in-memory fake provider for tests. Host couplings are config seams (owner model, fulfillment hook) — plug in your own billing objects.
from django_cfg import DjangoConfig, PaymentsConfig
class MyConfig(DjangoConfig):
payments = PaymentsConfig(
fulfillment_hook="apps.orders.hooks.activate_order",
)
pip install 'django-cfg[payments]' # adds the Stripe SDK
