A comment on Django REST framework 3. Parent comment

I used both for almost a year and while I really enjoyed working with tastypie, I found Django Rest Framework to be even better.

- I think Rest Framework's documentation is way better than tastypie's.

- I found tastypie's source code to be overly complicated, while DRF was a little bit better

- The browsable API is really nice

- I love DRF's API, such a Class Based Views, it felt like the continuation of Django, instead of a complete new thing.

It also (correctly IMO) uses headers to specify format rather than the client needing to append stuff like ?format=json to the URL.

Django Tastypie does that as well.
