Django Rest Framework and Django allauth

[Joseph Emeka]

Can i use Django rest framework and Django allauth in the same project or either of then at a time. Am building a project that will have a mobile app and a website version.

There is https://django-rest-auth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html which goes some way to integrating the two.

Depending on how your authenticating - e.g. if you are using OAuth2, I generally found allauth and rest auth got in the way more often then they were helpful and building some custom solutions is not that time consuming.

But if it's more basic authentication it should be fine.

Yea i will be using OAuth2 cause the app will be more accessed by mobile app and i will still maintain a web version for non mobile user incase a user misplace mobile device. Allauth authentication is good but my concern is the API which Rest framework is better for that but Allauth does not.
