Specifying model relationship as string vs concrete model class

2019-04-06 Thread Mohit Solanki
Since Django allows specifying relationship between models by both as a
string or by a model class
"models.Foreignkey('User') vs "models.Foreignkey(User)". Which one is
preferred and recommend and what are the downsides of choosing one over the
other? In documentation all the examples are of the second form but i have
seen ppl specifying relationships in string. Can someone please elaborate
more on this?

Regards,
Mohit Solanki
