cdrf-expert
Expert guidance for Django REST Framework class-based views using Classy DRF (https://www.cdrf.co). Use when selecting or debugging APIView, GenericAPIView, concrete generic views, mixin combinations, or ViewSet/GenericViewSet/ModelViewSet behavior; tracing method resolution order (MRO); understanding which method to override (create vs perform_create, update vs perform_update, destroy vs perform_destroy, get_queryset, get_serializer_class); and comparing behavior across DRF versions. Do not use for function-based views, GraphQL, FastAPI/Flask, frontend work, or non-DRF backend frameworks.
