STAGE 01

RAW HTTP RESPONSE

WHAT CHANGED

Directly returning string responses from views. No template files are read or processed by the engine.

WHY IT MATTERS

Provides maximum simplicity and zero overhead for health checks or basic microservices, but becomes unmaintainable for complex user interfaces.

KEY SYNTAX
from django.http import HttpResponse def index(request): return HttpResponse("Hello")
