I’ve just published the first article of a new series on my blog: “Django ORM standalone” 🧩
The idea is to use Django ORM in standalone mode to connect to existing or legacy databases and work only with the ORM, without the rest of Django, using inspectdb for reverse engineering the schema and querying data with Django QuerySets 🔎
If you’re curious about using Django ORM this way, here’s the link, and let me know what you think 💡
