It's my understanding that you can use Django's Form classes to replicate any POST/UPDATE/DELETE operations you'd like to use DRF for. I'm not sure what else DRF gets you besides more API-like auth - for example I don't know how well Django would support token-based auth out-of-the-box as compared to DRF. |

* pluggable authentication methods (literally adding JWT, session and cookie tokens takes one line of code * pluggable output serializers (want YAML? Plug in a renderer. XML? Same thing) * pluggable documentation generators * Utility methods for handling RESTful response types
DRF has a staggering amount of features that, if implemented by hand, require a stupid amount of time and a 100% guarantee of subtle bugs.
