Django Bolt

Django-Bolt is a high-performance API framework built on top of Django that gives you FastAPI-style route decorators, automatic request validation with msgspec, and OpenAPI docs out of the box. It's async-first with typed handlers, dependency injection via Depends, built-in auth guards for JWT and API keys, and native support for streaming, SSE, and WebSockets. You run it with `python manage.py runbolt --dev` instead of uvicorn. The skill handles endpoint creation, auth wiring, pagination setup, and includes migration patterns from FastAPI, DRF, and Django Ninja. Skip it for standard Django views or admin work, but reach for it when you want modern API ergonomics without leaving the Django ecosystem.
