Without any doubts, password management mechanisms are something that should not be reinvented each and every time. Especially, when it comes to Django, which comes in a “battery included” mode when we talk about authentication. Password validation is one of architecture patterns that allows to mitigate an issue of poor passwords - a common security problem. By default, Django comes with 4 password validators enabled and when you use built-in forms for user signup or password update, they are fired without any additional configuration. However, when it comes to Django REST framework, it is a duty of developers to enable password validators in custom code.
