We upgrade old Django and Django REST Framework projects to a supported version, step by step: dependency updates, deprecations fixed, tests added where missing, and a deployment plan with rollback. Fixed price from $6,000.
What you get
- An upgrade path planned version by version.
- Dependencies updated and deprecated APIs replaced.
- Tests added around the parts that matter before anything changes.
- Staging rehearsal and a rollback plan for go-live.
Good fit if
- Your Django version no longer gets security fixes.
- Packages you rely on dropped support for your version.
- Nobody on the team wants to touch the upgrade.
