I've implemented Django+DRF+React in several projects. The thrust of my arguement is that, were Django started today and not 17 years ago, it would account for these concepts more than templates do.

Django contrib exists to be a home for first party solutions to specific problems [1]. It need not be an entire frontend framework that follows trends like react, but something to make syncing state easier sits squarely in that namespace.
