How does this skill improve Django performance?

It provides implementation patterns for custom QuerySets that utilize select_related and prefetch_related to eliminate N+1 query issues and optimize database interactions.

Does this skill support Django REST Framework?

Yes, it includes specialized patterns for DRF serializers, ViewSets, and custom permissions to help build secure and efficient APIs.

How does it handle project configuration?
