This is a basic introduction to the Django Rest Framework. I've posted this here so I can easily refer to it accross machines. Note that I am running this on Linux Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Note that I did not create this tutorial, I am have simply gone through it and found it to be a particularly useful beginner guide and posted here for convenience sake. The original tutorial can be found at Django for React/Angular/Mobile Apps
