Absolutely. For what it does, Django is pretty much the best full stack Python web framework there is. It's also a great way to rapidly develop (just sticking to synchronous, which Django is best at).

One can then later consider spinning certain logic off into a separate service (e.g. in Golang), if speed is a concern with Python.

I’m not sure there’s a better full stack platform in any other language really?
Yeah, you are right. Maybe Ruby on Rails is up there? But I don't really know Ruby, and I never got into that.
Someone just sent me a job opening for an engineer to work on a startup’s PHP backend and Python “everything else”. Absolutely insane.
Where? Two of the best languages. Sign me up.
