How to glue Django and React together?

[Abhiram P]

I want to use react as front end and Django as back end. And the URL routing must be done by Django. How to do this

Hi, what you're trying to do is called server side rendering. Django does this out of the box with it's templating language , however since you want to use an SPA (React) I suggest you look into Nextjs. It's built like this out of the box.

Hi,

I am using that stack for my website aldianfazrihady.com.
It uses these modules:
https://pypi.org/project/django-webpack-loader/

https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-router-dom

On web browser, open my website, and use developer tools or view source to see how it interacts with django backend. 
I am using django only as API gateway using DRF and only to load simple page that points to JS that will initialize React.
UI rendering is done on web browser side.
