I think I failed to explain my situation clearly, and I need to try again.

I have been planning to develop a standard web application using Django. 
Due to a change in direction, the development plan has been changed to:


   1. Develop a suite of no-GUI applications that run in a command line 
   window on a server. One other application will run on *clients *in a 
   command line window, and will perform certain operations on the server 
   through a REST API service. However,
   2. All of the applications will use an SQL database that runs on the 
   server.
   3. In a later phase of the project, the server applications will be 
   combined and modified to present a GUI.

My question is this: Is it feasible to make all of the server applications 
use Django to communicate with the database server in step 1, and then use 
it to implement the GUI in step 3? By doing so, I would avoid having to (1) 
code all of the database operations without Django in step 1, then recode 
them with Django in step 3, or (2) end up with a "hybrid" application that 
implements the GUI in Django but the database operations outside Django.

I haven't looked at the "Django REST" link yet, but I appreciate the 
suggestion. The project will require a REST API, as I mentioned, although 
most of the applications will run on the server, and will *not* need an API.
