Anyone have deep experience with both Django and Laravel and can offer a comparison of the two?


I have a lots of experience with Django, and a few months experience with Laravel. I think Django is good at pure backend solutions. When you're not doing the frontend in Django itself but instead doing a separate SPA. Also the admin is a great tool as an internal CMS. Django rest framework is awesome too.

Laravel is a real "full stack" framework, it has a very powerful templating system (one of the best I've seen!) where you can do components instead of just includes. It has a powerful assets bundling pipeline, great integration with alpine, Vue, inertia and the super awesome livewire.

Laravel documentation is TOP.

As I'm not a fan of the SPA approach and still like frontend and building applications, I much prefer Laravel nowadays.
