# Cdrf Expert

> Expert guidance for Django REST Framework class-based views using Classy DRF (https://www.cdrf.co).

Expert guidance for Django REST Framework class-based views using Classy DRF (https://www.cdrf.co). Use when selecting or debugging APIView, GenericAPIView, concrete generic views, mixin combinations, or ViewSet/GenericViewSet/ModelViewSet behavior; tracing method resolution order (MRO); understanding which method to override (`create` vs `perform_create`, `update` vs `perform_update`, `destroy` vs `perform_destroy`, `get_queryset`, `get_serializer_class`); and comparing behavior across DRF versions. Do not use for function-based views, GraphQL, FastAPI/Flask, frontend work, or non-DRF backend frameworks.
