It is different. JS is popular because people who write SPAs also want to write backends in the same language.

What I really like about Django and Python ecosystem in general is the kind of stability that it doesn't move too fast and break things, which happens in JS land too often. And Python is a nicer language of the two, for me at least.

But at the end of the day, you can combine both. I work for Baserow now and we combine Nuxt + Django. You can also simplify it to Vue/React + Vite + serve it with Django, use cookies-base auth etc.
