title: Django Rest Framework & Angular Dev vs Prod string & byte issue on json.loads()
body: <p>On releasing my site to staging server certain server calls have stopped working. They now need to be decoded utf-8.</p>
  <p>Backend is running Django Rest Framework, Frontend is Angular 9.</p>
  <p>I can't see why two similar setups on two different machines is causing such a random issue.</p>
  <p>Headers include settings the charset to utf-8 (below)</p>
  <p><code>headers = headers.set('Content-Type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8');</code></p>
  <p>But this doesn't effect the dev server.</p>
  <p>Does anyone have any experience in this issue?</p>
