It runs only during development when DEBUG is enabled and appears as an overlay in the browser, allowing developers to inspect details about each HTTP request without leaving the application.\n\nThe toolbar is built as a Django middleware and URL configuration that intercepts requests and collects telemetry. It depends on django and sqlparse for SQL query formatting. The package is production-stable (version 7.1.1), actively maintained, and supports current Django versions (5.2, 6.0, 6.1) and Python 3.10 through 3.14. It has experimental support for Django's async views but does not yet handle concurrent requests.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a standard, low-friction development tool for Django projects. It has no security vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, minimal dependencies, and active maintenance. Install it in your development environment to gain visibility into request handling, SQL queries, and performance without modifying application code."},"id":"django-debug-toolbar","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-debug-toolbar","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-debug-toolbar.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-debug-toolbar/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-debug-toolbar","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A configurable set of panels that display various debug information about the current request/response."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":9003980,"position":1568,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"7.1.1"}
