You may have to elaborate on "connected" here. Is it able to import
the code of the other app, or is it restricted to HTTP requests and
responses? If the latter, there's no significance to them both being
written in Django; you'll have to create an explicit endpoint that
enumerates the models, probably sending the info as a JSON object.
(Caveat: I don't know Django, but I do know HTTP.)
