How django-rest-framework fits together

The rest_framework directory is the package that is added to INSTALLED_APPS and contains the framework code. Serialization handles both ORM and non-ORM data sources, and authentication policies are provided, including optional packages for OAuth1a and OAuth2. Permissions and other behavior are set through the REST_FRAMEWORK settings dictionary, such as DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES. The project depends on Django, and pyproject.toml is the manifest that declares the package. The docs directory holds the documentation source, with docs/index.md as its entry point, and the tests directory holds the test suite. The .github/workflows/main.yml file defines the main GitHub workflow.
