Love Django, but the issue we’ve had with tasks isn’t with performance, scalability, or devex - it’s with operations. Django-tasks afaict has the same issues as Celery/others in that there’s no Django Admin-like tool that reliably allows you to manage task execution, specifically failures. Without this, I can’t use async tasks for anything that’s important to the business or data consistency generally - which means I don’t use it at all, favoring “normal” queuing backends.

Is Django-tasks the solution that would permit this to be built?



Second this. I’m amazed by the lack of any Django admin interface to start a task or see how it failed, it seems like such an obvious use case. I’ve tried Celery Flower but I found it lacking. I’m surprised because it seems like such a common use case, and given the size of the Django community I would’ve expected something to exist…
