"Welcome to the highlights and key takeaways from the recently released Django Developers Survey. Now in its fourth year, this annual collaboration between the Django Software Foundation and PyCharm tabulates responses from over 4,600 Django developers worldwide. If you work with Python and the web more broadly, there's a lot to learn from what's happening in the vibrant Django ecosystem. My name is Will Vincent, and I'm a longtime contributor to the Django community as well as a Developer Advocate at PyCharm."
"Django is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year and is settling in quite nicely, thank you, to its mature status. Backward-breaking changes are exceedingly rare, even as new feature versions (5.2, 6.0, 6.1, etc.) are released every eight months, double-digit PRs are merged into core each week, and the global community has never been stronger. This thriving ecosystem exists thanks to the ongoing work of Django's maintainers, reviewers, and mentors."
Responses from over 4,600 Django developers worldwide were collected in the fourth annual Django Developers Survey, reflecting trends across the ecosystem. Django celebrates its 20th anniversary and maintains a mature release cadence with new feature versions approximately every eight months and double-digit pull requests merged into core each week. Backward-breaking changes are rare. The ecosystem benefits from maintainers, reviewers, and mentors who sustain development. PyCharm and the Django Software Foundation run an Annual Django Fundraiser, offering 30% off PyCharm Professional through November 11, 2025, with all proceeds donated to the DSF. Nine years of the campaign have raised over $330,000. Django lacks centralized usage analytics and precise download metrics.
