Consider adding a response serializer (e.g., LoginResponseSerializer) instead of manually constructing the response dictionary and documenting it inline in @extend_schema.

Since this is not a serialized model and involves custom fields and calculations, I believe keeping it as is would be better for maintainability and readability.

[question] Why aren't we using Django's authenticate() method here? The current implementation is prone to time attack (The user lookup and password check happen separately which could leak the information about which emails exist)

I’ve updated the implementation. The check for the password was originally used because Django’s authentication backend relies on the username rather than the email. I’ve now applied a workaround and updated the usage to address the previously mentioned vulnerabilities.

Minor Suggestions. Otherwise looks good. 👍

Suggestion: Since email is unique, prefer get() over filter().first() to make the assumption explicit and fail fast if data integrity is violated.

| 'last_name': user.last_name, | ||
| 'avatar': None |

Suggestion: avatar is always returned as None. If no avatar is available, consider omitting the field rather than returning a constant null value.

Suggestion: Consider including a stable identifier (e.g. user_id) in user_info to simplify client-side user state management.
