Hi Eric,

First of all, thank you for giving my article a read and sharing your opinions. As you can tell I have just started writing and your criticism would help me to become better at writing and developing.

Yes Django is the Rambo loaded with a lot of ammunition (admin and ORM are the highlights) when it comes to web-development. With ASGI support, it is indeed gonna be the favorite.

But again, it all depends on the scaling and the features required in the project. I believe a developer with a deeper knowledge with databases can manage without the fancy ORM, and speed up 3x.
