If it's able to survive other 3 or 5 years, I'd argue the pendulum will just swing back to the "django's way".
> If you want an admin wrapper around your database, you have better many modern alternatives (I use directus). If you want low code and easy platform, you have bubble.io. If you want an easy api for your database, you can use things like hasura. If you want python frameworks, try fastapi (its third party admin is great). If you want an orm, sqlalchemy gives you more bang for your buck.
And your requirements.txt or poetry.lock file grows and grows. The thing I really like about django is that I don't need any external packages to start. I have basically everything I need to start inside a single package and don't need to bother about how to integrate sqlalchemy with flask, how to add auth and authorization to my stack or how to check that all of my tens of dependencies are safe and regularly updated.
The only thing I really miss is something like LiveView. I know there's htmx and similar, but i hope they will be some "official way".
