Comment (by karosis88):

 Replying to [comment:2 Mariusz Felisiak]:
 > SQLite has limited number of datatypes, and there is no difference
 between `TEXT` and `VARCHAR` (no declared max length), both would be
 stored in the `TEXT` datatype. You can use `TextField` for unlimited
 `CharField`.

 Does it really solve the problem? I want to use CharField and not
 TextField (when using sqlite3 for the startup but planning to migrate to
 another DBMS).
 In such cases, I can use CharField (max_length = 1), but it wouldn't make
 any sense for the reviewer.
