Common Django Interview Questions

Q: Explain Django's ORM and the N+1 query problem

A: Django ORM maps Python objects to database tables. N+1 problem: fetching list of objects, then accessing related objects in loop causes N extra queries. Solution: use select_related() for foreign keys (JOIN), prefetch_related() for many-to-many (separate query). Always check queries with django-debug-toolbar.

Q: What is the difference between select_related and prefetch_related?

A: select_related: SQL JOIN, single query, follows foreign keys and one-to-one. prefetch_related: separate queries, many-to-many and reverse foreign keys. Use select_related for forward foreign key, prefetch_related for reverse relations and M2M. Can chain both for complex queries.

Q: Explain Django middleware and give examples of use cases

A: Middleware is hooks into Django's request/response processing. Each middleware processes requests before views, responses after. Order matters! Use cases: authentication, CSRF protection, session management, caching, logging. Custom middleware: process_request, process_response, process_exception methods.

Q: How does Django's migration system work?

A: Migrations track database schema changes. makemigrations creates migration files from model changes. migrate applies migrations to database. Migrations are Python files with operations (CreateModel, AddField, etc.). Can be reversed (unapplied). Use data migrations for data changes, schema migrations for structure.
