Can Django be used to combine both webapp and moblie api?

I want to use django framework to write a web site with static/dynamic pages (I will not be using angular/react - i.e. SPA technology) but I also want the web app to serve as the backend for a mobile app.

What's the best practice here? Can Django alone be used for it? Will I need to use Django REST framework?

If you could recommend some specific modules to keep the app as simple as possible and avoid DRY code. That'd be great.

Thanks.

You have the right pointers in your question already. Use django-rest-framework to create a rest service, create your web app in django to consume that service, create a mobile app to consume the same rest service.

In general, once you have a rest service, you can build anything on top of it. Just consume the service from whichever platform you want to build for.

I hope that helps.
