mangoapi-framework 0.1.0a1

Modern lightweight framework for building async APIs on top of Django

🍋 MangoAPI

MangoAPI is a lightweight meta-framework that lets you build modern, clean and asynchronous APIs inside a traditional Django project.

It integrates Starlette for async routing, while preserving Django’s admin, ORM, and all core functionality.

---

🚀 Features

• Clean sintaxis.
• Powered by Starlette for async support.
• Fully compatible with Django admin, ORM, and views.
• Minimal and zero-boilerplate setup.

---

🔧 Django Integration

• Your Django project continues to work as usual (/admin, ORM, templates).
• Async routes are automatically mounted under /api.

---

🎯 Why MangoAPI?

Because you want the best of both worlds:

• Django’s power and ecosystem.
• The speed and modernity of async APIs.
