When to choose Django

Choose Django when your primary concern is server response time and performance. Its audit data shows consistent strength in these areas across the sampled sites.

When to choose Microsoft

Microsoft doesn't clearly lead Django in any category on the sampled sites — pick it based on developer experience, ecosystem, or existing team skills rather than the audit scores.

How this comparison was built

Scores are medians across 48 audited Django sites and 2421 audited Microsoft sites in the BeaverCheck database. Every audit runs the same 100+ checks — Lighthouse performance, security headers, accessibility, SEO, server response time — against a real URL. No vendor input, no sponsorship, no affiliate links.
