Is Django is dying literally? I read some article regarding falling off the
popularity among new startups.What do you thing about it?
Should I not recommend my juniors to choose the same?

Why would it be dying? Django is still experiencing consist growth (on Github at least), big companies like Instagram, Pinterest, and Udemy still use it, and because it's a Python based framework, it's arguably pretty appealing to a lot of new developers (it certainly was for me).
The reason people think like this because the JavaScript ecosystem is getting larger and larger and with every month some new framework or runtime. This makes people feel the web development ecosystem in python3 is not growing at all. It's all javascript and it is the only one active out there.
Also twitter is a big culprit here. I have seen many devs at twitter just say, "EWW, Who uses Django?" even when some of them never tried Django. Just making others get a bad impression, who were about to try it for the first time.
Well yeah, i think the perception is being made as such . But I guess for AI-ML applications javascript is not the best option.
Agreed!
I am talking about companies using real-time products.
Django is far from dying! It remains a popular and robust web framework for Python developers. While new frameworks and technologies emerge, Django continues to be widely used for its simplicity, scalability, and strong community support. It's especially favored for building secure and maintainable web applications. Trends and preferences may shift, but Django’s solid foundation and ongoing development ensure it stays relevant in the web development landscape.
Yeah It Is.It will be relevent.
