Are custom Managers and QuerySets included?

Yes, it provides templates for creating reusable query logic via custom Managers and QuerySets, promoting cleaner and more maintainable codebases.

Can I use this for complex search and filtering functionality?

Yes, the skill includes comprehensive patterns for dynamic query building using Q objects for OR/NOT logic and advanced filtering across related models.

How does this skill improve Django performance?

It provides implementation patterns for eager loading (select_related and prefetch_related) to eliminate N+1 query issues and leverages database-level calculations using annotations to reduce Python-side processing.

Does this skill support database transactions and locking?

Absolutely. It covers atomic blocks, savepoints, and select_for_update patterns to ensure data consistency during concurrent operations.

Database Management

Optimizes database interactions by implementing advanced Django ORM patterns for efficient queries, complex relationships, and performance tuning.

About

This skill provides Claude with specialized expertise in the Django Object-Relational Mapper (ORM), enabling the creation of high-performance, scalable database logic. It guides the implementation of best practices such as avoiding N+1 query problems through select_related and prefetch_related, utilizing Q and F objects for complex conditional queries, and managing data integrity with atomic transactions. Whether you are defining robust models with optimized indexes or building custom Managers and QuerySets for reusable business logic, this skill ensures your Django backend follows professional software development standards for efficiency and maintainability.
