content_types, generic foreign keys, and basically any other uncommon use pattern for RDBMS are very rough in django. Tradeoff of their ORM being heavily streamlined for the 90% use cases (typical SQL selects and upserts).
- rbistolfi 10y agoBut you can use other ORM if you want, or no ORM. However, the benefits of using Django come mostly from using their highly integrated components, I admit. In any case, we swapped the ORM with our own implementation of the data layer and we are doing fine. I like the API overall, specially class based views.
- raverbashing 10y agoYes Might be easier to just write SQL in those cases
