Upgraded from Tastypie to DRF #43

@davebridges

Description

@davebridges

Tastypie is no longer under active development and lacks modern Django features, including full support for Django 5+. Django REST Framework (DRF) is the de facto standard for building REST APIs in Django. It is well-maintained, widely adopted, and has a robust ecosystem including authentication, serialization, browsable APIs, and strong community support.

Benefits of migrating to DRF:

  • Active support for latest Django versions
  • More flexible and powerful serialization and view logic
  • Rich third-party ecosystem (pagination, throttling, schema generation)
  • Easier integration with modern frontend frameworks
  • Migrating to DRF will ensure long-term maintainability and compatibility of our API layer.
