> Opinionated frameworks offer much more than a middleware auth and an admin CRUD backend. Just have a look at the doc.
I am familiar with Django, thanks. I've also worked with "rest-heavy" services in Django and it wasn't very advantageous as opposed to using a lightweight framework.
> Any sufficiently complicated "small-framework" webapp contains an ad-hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of a "full-framework"
Except that your "full-framework" functionality is in the frontend, hence you don't need it on the backend.
You might also be trying to turn your "full-framework" car into a boat, instead of building a boat from an engine, with the results you might expect from it.
