Carlton GibsonHow I approach decoupling business logic from the Django ORM.

Tin Tvrtković@carlton disregarding specific libraries, there's definitely a rich discussion to be had around application architecture and complexity management here, and I think your entry here adds to it thoughtfully. I personally fall into the camp where I'll happily put the business logic meat into the "view", eschewing a service layer until the codepath needs to be shared. I have folks at $DAYJOB arguing otherwise, and not without merit.
@carlton the argument goes that refactoring into a more abstract service layer on-demand runs into the risk of it being done inexpertly and inconsistently. Which I understand.
I guess, like many things in software engineering, the right call here depends on the people involved and not the technical arguments one way or another
