Hello,

Looking to build a POC and want to know what the simplest way to build and maintain a crud api to use in a react app. Mostly the app will be doing is reading/searching through a db of items.

Ideally something as serverless as possible.

I recommend using Django Rest Framework. Django gives you great admin forms for any and all data models and Django Rest Framework gives you a browseable API with in browser forms for your convenience. In addition it has a super effective structure for creating easy to maintain and reusable code.
