Can (or should) I consume Ninja API internally?

I'm really liking django-ninja as I've been experimenting with it, but I'm wondering if I can somehow consume the endpoints (or Schemas) internally as well, in order to pass serialized content around my app. Currently I have a handful of serializers and views that serve as a sort of ad hoc internal API, but it would be nice to consolidate all of that into a few proper views that are public-facing as well. I'm also pretty new to API design, so maybe this is just not a reasonable approach, but I've been looking around and not finding much to go on.

I could use requests to make calls out to my ninja endpoints and then use the content internally from there, but that seems like a very heavy-handed approach...

Thanks for any input, and thanks for this project!

Ah, I looked one more time through the documentation and I believe I found the answer in serializing-outside-of-views, I can use Schemas internally with the .from_orm method. Great! I'll leave this discussion open for the moment in case others have input, but will close soon as I think this is all I need.
