Yes, the previous time I tried to use FastAPI I moved the project to Django-Ninja and development accelerated massively.
Django has so many things that just work - I take storing the session in the database for granted and there were only half finished solutions for this.
Sorting out migrations was a pain outside of Django, even in the new project I'm in with more experienced devs on alembic a lot of things had to manually built and I regularly have to manually edit migrations.
On Django I only have to manually edit the migrations when I'm building a data migration and I can take for granted they just work.
I briefly played with FastAPI, and after the same shock I discovered Django-Ninja [1]. It's modeled after FastAPI and async-capable (if you are inclined, but warning, there be dragons). It plays nicely with all parts of Django, including the ORM.
