Do you want to develop reliable and secure applications which stand out from the crowd, rather than spending hours on boilerplate code? Then 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.
This book starts with the essential concepts necessary to learn Django. Then we 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 further, 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 daily key 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 develop and deploy your own projects with Django.
