Description

Dear Sir/Madam,

In the last days I create severals REST APIs, and I think this is very arduous, because we write the same thing several times, and this is not the Django propose. So I'm thinkin to create a new feature, it's like Django Admin, but to create REST APIs easily. It's works registering the models, specifing fields and etc, a lot like Django Admin. I didn't start create it yet, but if you allow I can start.

Sincerely, Guilherme Isaías

There is already an excellent 3rd party package that you can use django-rest-framework.

#33884 was closed as a duplicate. I was going to comment there with some breadcrumbs.

This is essentially a duplicate of #21442, plus see also #32646, #32259, as well as this discussion on the Django Forum, and experiments such as kezabelle/django-formality.

There's plenty of groundwork going on... — one of the first steps would be to tease-out the request body parsing from `_load_post_and_files()` so that we might add a request.data property that was able to handle (by default) both JSON and form-encoded data, plus multipart variants. I think if we can make progress there, we wouldn't be too far off. (Parts such as JSONResponse are already in place — you can do this already, but it's still a little manual…)
