Django Development
Why Django?
Django isn't a trendy choice—it's the pragmatic one. Instagram serves 2 billion users on Django. Pinterest. Dropbox. When companies need to ship fast without cutting corners on security, they choose Django.
We've standardized on Django for most backend work because the decisions have been made. Authentication, admin, ORM, migrations, security protections—Django handles the infrastructure so we can focus on your business logic.
A third-party security audit of our FinTech Django code found zero major vulnerabilities. That's Django's built-in protections plus our engineering discipline.
ClearSummit developed an effective platform that continues to attract and satisfy users. They had a thorough understanding of our needs and were able to provide top-notch solutions.
Batteries Included
Django gives you 80% of what you need before you write a line of code.
Authentication with password hashing, session management, CSRF protection. Admin interface for content management. ORM with migrations. Form validation. All battle-tested by millions of production deployments.
We don't build custom auth systems. We don't reinvent database migrations. We use Django's proven implementations and focus our engineering on what makes your product unique.
Standing on Giants
Django's ecosystem is mature and massive.
Need payment processing? Stripe SDK. Need to send emails? Django-anymail. Need full-text search? Django-elasticsearch. Need real-time features? Django Channels.
We integrate existing packages, customize them for your needs, and ship. We don't waste engineering time building what already exists and works.
We're more confident than ever that we can support our growing user base because of the foundation ClearSummit built for us. The code base is clean.
How We Work
Architecture First
Database schema, API contracts, Django app structure—we design the system before writing code. Bad model decisions haunt you forever. We've learned this the hard way so you don't have to.
Iterative Sprints
2-week cycles with deployments to a staging environment. You test real features every sprint. We catch integration issues before they compound.
Testing & CI/CD
90%+ test coverage using Django's testing framework plus pytest. Automated deployments with every merge. Bugs get caught before production.
Deploy & Scale
AWS, Heroku, or your existing infrastructure. We handle deployment, monitoring, database optimization. Django scales—we've seen it handle enterprise loads.

Django Ecosystem
Proven tools that scale.
Is Django Right for You?
Choose Django if: You need a solid backend with APIs. You want built-in security. You want to hire easily—Python/Django developers are everywhere. You want to ship fast without technical debt.
Consider alternatives if: You need extreme real-time performance (consider Go). You're in the Microsoft ecosystem (.NET). Your team already knows Node.js deeply.
We build with multiple technologies. We recommend what's right for your product, not what's convenient for us.
