django & mysql

In the previous tutorial, you learnt to create Django APIs to perform CRUD operations on MYSQL database and tested the APIs using Django REST framework and Django Admin panel. In most cases, we need to restrict APIs access to only authenticated and authorized users. Django comes with user authentication system that help you develop your secure APIs fast. In this tutorial, you learn to implement user authentication functionality using Django authentication system with Simple JWT that provides a JSON Web Token authorization backend. It allows user registration with username and password. In the login process, a user that provides correct username and password is authenticated and  obtains tokens (refresh and access tokens). A client app accesses restricted APIs has to provide the access token to be verified by Django backend. If the token is valid, the client app is permitted to access the APIs.  To get started with Simple JWT, install the following dependency: pip install djangorest
