Configuring CORS and protecting against CSRF attacks

Nowadays, lot of software are designed to be used in a browser through an interface built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Traditionally, web servers were responsible for handling browser requests and returning an HTML response, ready to be shown. This is a common use case for frameworks such as Django.

For a few years now, there has been a shift in that pattern. With the emergence of JavaScript frameworks, such as Angular, React, and Vue, we tend to have a clear separation between the frontend, a highly interactive user interface powered by JavaScript, and the backend. Thus, those backends are now only responsible for data storage and retrieving and executing business logic. This is a task that REST APIs are very good at! From the JavaScript code, the user interface can then just spawn requests to your API and handle the result to present it.
