Django Q objects for complex queries

Q objects enable complex query logic with OR, AND, and NOT operations. I combine them with | for OR and & for AND. The ~Q() syntax negates a condition. This is cleaner than raw SQL for dynamic filters. I build Q objects conditionally based on user input, adding clauses as needed. For search across multiple fields, I chain Q objects with OR. Parentheses control precedence when mixing operators. Q objects work with all QuerySet methods like filter() and exclude(). This keeps queries readable and database-agnostic.
