Description
Do you want to develop reliable and secure applications which stand out from the crowd, rather than spending hours on boilerplate code?
Then the Django framework is where you should begin.
Often referred to as a 'batteries included' web development framework, Django comes with all the core features needed to build a standalone application. Web Development with Django takes this philosophy and equips you with the knowledge and confidence to build real-world applications using Python. Starting with the essential concepts of Django, you'll cover its major features by building a website called Bookr – a repository for book reviews.
This end-to-end case study is split into a series of bitesize projects that are presented as exercises and activities, allowing you to challenge yourself in an enjoyable and attainable way. As you progress, you'll learn various practical skills, including how to serve static files to add CSS, JavaScript, and images to your application, how to implement forms to accept user input, and how to manage sessions to ensure a reliable user experience.
Throughout this book, you'll cover key daily tasks that are part of the development cycle of a real-world web application. By the end of this book, you'll have the skills and confidence to creatively tackle your own ambitious projects with Django.Key FeaturesUnderstand Django functionality and the Model-View-Template (MVT) paradigmCreate and iteratively build a book review website, adding features as you build your knowledgeExplore advanced concepts such as REST API implementation and third-party module integrationWhat you will learnCreate a new application and add models to describe your dataUse views and templates to control behavior and appearanceImplement access control through authentication and permissionsDevelop practical web forms to add features such as file uploadsDevelop a RESTful API and JavaScript code that communicates with itConnect to a database such as PostgreSQLWho this book is forWeb Development with Django is designed for programmers who want to gain web development skills with the Django framework.
