Python Django Crash Course | Build Real World Web Apps

Django enables rapid, scalable Python web development by minimizing configuration. Provides an open source admin interface, ORM, routing, and multi language support.

Learn to set up Django on your machine using virtual environments, install Django, create a project, run the development server, and configure your editor for Django work.

Explore Django project structure and core files such as manage.py, settings.py, and db.sqlite3, and learn how migrations and the runserver command initialize and manage the app.

Learn to enable a terminal inside Atom by installing a package, activate your Django virtual environment, and run commands directly in multiple terminal instances without leaving the editor.

Discover how Django uses projects and apps, and learn to create an app with manage.py startapp. Explore models, admin, and views that shape data and user interactions.

Explore how Django's model–view–template architecture processes a user request, maps URLs, interacts with the model to fetch data, and renders HTML via the template.

Explore how Django URL mappings connect browser requests to views using the path function, including routes, args, kwargs, and named patterns.

Explore views in Django, learn how views carry business logic, handle the request–response cycle, map hello_world to URLs, and render dynamic or hardcoded browser responses.

Explore how Django template language renders dynamic content in html templates, separating data from presentation and guiding you to render static and dynamic content via views.

install the atom-beautify package, then use it to beautify HTML and CSS code; resolve a missing autopep8 dependency by installing it, and format with the Mac shortcut ctrl-option-b.

Learn how to build a Django app that greets a user by name, capturing input with a form and rendering a dynamic welcome via a view and template.

Explore get, post, put, and delete requests and learn how each type retrieves, creates, updates, or deletes resources in a database, with practical examples.

Convert forms to the post method to hide sensitive data and enhance security in Django. Implement CSRF tokens and understand how to handle post data in views.

Install PostgreSQL and pgAdmin to start working with databases and models. Follow platform-specific installers for Mac, Windows, or Linux, configure a master password, and launch pgAdmin to manage your data.

Explore how an object-relational mapper maps classes to database tables and attributes to columns, automating storage of objects as rows and reducing manual queries and mistakes.

Explain how models map to tables and records, create a new app, and configure the database (engine, name, user, password, host, port) for a Django web app.

Create a Django model named employee with first name, last name, and age, verify database connectivity, and apply migrations to generate the corresponding table.

Enable and access the Django admin interface to manage data via the browser. Register models, create a superuser, and add or edit employee records reflected in the database.

Fetch data from the database by creating a new endpoint, retrieve all employees via a Django view, and render them in a template to build a dynamic web page.

Discover how Django model forms convert models into ready-made forms, create an employee form from a model, and integrate it into views and templates with CSRF protection.

Save data from a Django model form by validating input, saving the employee record, and redirecting to the employee list to reflect updates in the database.

Learn how Django form validation works with model-driven defaults, and how to use form.is_valid() and form.save() in views. See how model constraints enforce field limits.

Discover how Django templates render dynamic information with variables in the Django template language. Pass a variable from a view into a template to render values at runtime.

Learn how to work with Django tags in the template language, including if statements, for loops, include and block tags, and the distinction between tags and variables.

Learn to use if and else statements in Django templates to conditionally render content based on age and other variables, using if, else, and elif blocks.

Learn how to use for loops in the Django template language to iterate over dynamic lists provided by the view, and display each item with a counter.

Learn how to use Django template inheritance to create a base template with a consistent header and background, and extend it with block content and include for page-specific sections.

Explore building a Django-based to-do app with add, update, complete, and delete features. See how templates, HTML, CSS, and a database deliver dynamic, persistent data.

Create a Django project and app, configure the database (engine, name, host) and connect it to the project. Migrate models, define task with name, complete, created, and generate database tables.

Register your models so they appear in the admin panel; import the models, create a super user, and manage tasks via the admin interface, with changes reflected in the database.

Display the list of tasks stored in the database by fetching all tasks from the model and rendering them in a Django template.

Create a Django model form by converting the Task model into a model form and rendering it in a template for in-app task creation.

Learn to save template form data to the database by handling post requests, validating with form.is_valid, saving with form.save, and redirecting after submission.

Add update functionality to the to-do list with an update button beside each task, routing to a view that fetches the task by id and initializes the form.

Save updated tasks in a Django app by handling post requests, validating the task form, and redirecting to the home page to reflect changes in the database.

Learn to implement delete functionality for todos in a Django app, including templates, confirmation prompts, view logic, redirects, and updating models and lists.

Learn how to mark tasks as complete in a Django app by evaluating a boolean is_complete and applying a strike-through in the UI to reflect completed tasks.

Beautify the Hulu app interface with Bootstrap CSS, switch to the latest Bootstrap version, center the form, and style buttons.
