Course Description
API stands for Application Programming Interface.
An API is a software intermediary that allows two applications to talk to each other. In other words, an API is the messenger that delivers your request to the provider that you're requesting it from and then delivers the response back to you.
When we are building APIs, we want our models to provide four basic types of functionality. The model must be able to Create, Read, Update,and Delete resources.
In this course, we are going to build an API using the following technology:
Python
Django
Django Rest Framework
PostgreSQL
psycopg2
django-cors-headers

this course was highly educative. Simple and concise points with clear code and instructions

The author of these course has good command on topic. He is explaining the each topic in very short and easy manner.

There was little to none coverage for postgres. DRF is based on models. There was no explanation on that part. No templates whatsoever. Also there is no step by step on building things. There's just a bunch of code pasted into empty files. Can be hugely improved.
By Scott Bronkema on 2/25/2022
This quickly got me to set up an api within my own project. It was well worth the money. I was able to skip a lot of the coursework having a running Django project but his examples were able to help me quickly copy code and get what I needed to be done. Great course.
By Onkar Bhayana on 1/20/2021
he is explaining in an simplest way to understand ... i love it

Django is based on MVT i.e. model view template, so template was not involved in the course.

I am understanding this as my doing this project along with the instructor.

As a beginner, it looks clear to me. More graphical illustrations can be added.

Good course , you need some very basic knowledge about django to continue the course.
By Ojas S on 8/23/2020
Course is definitely not for beginners. No explanation of the project. It should be mentioned in the beginning of the course on what we are building.
