Here Is Everything You Will Learn In This Complete Course:

In this hands-on course, you will learn how to build complex web applications from scratch using Django.

The course will teach you Django, right from scratch from a very basic level and will gradually move towards advanced topics like authentication.

The entire course is divided into 14 major sections.

Here is a brief description of what you will learn in each section of the course:

Section 1: Introduction and installing required software.

In this section we will learn what Django is and why it is used. We will also install the tools you will need to start making Django web apps. We will learn how to install Django and setup a Django project both on Windows & Mac individually.

Section 2: Views & URL Patterns

Django is based on the MVT(Model, Views & Templates) architecture and hence we start learning about what are views, how to create our very first view in Django which will power up our first webpage in Django. We then learn how to attach a view with a URL using URL patterns. We learn what are URL patterns and how they can be used to handle incoming URL requests to our Django app. This view section covers function based views as they are much simpler and offer more functionality, however in the later part of the course we will also learn class based views as well which is another way of implementing views in Django.

Section 3: Database & Models In Django

After learning about Views and URLs, it's now time to learn about models. In Django models are a blueprint to create database tables. Unlike other backend frameworks, in Django you don't have to create a database connection and then create database tables by writing SQL queries but instead Django provides you with models using which database tables are automatically generated at the backend without having to write a single SQL query. In this section we learn how to create a model and how to map that model to create a database table out of it in the backend.

Section 4: Django ORM

Just as you don't have to write SQL queries to create a model, you don't have to write any queries for querying data from the database either. Django comes with a built-in ORM which stands for Object Relational Mapper which allows you to treat database table entries as individual objects. In this section we learn how to add data to database tables using the ORM and also learn how to retrieve data as well from the database using the same. We also learn how to access the Django admin panel by creating a super user from where data could be added by the site administrator.

Section 5: Views & Templates

Once we have learned the basics of how views work in Django, we now learn how to populate these views with some database data. We also learn how to connect these views with templates which are nothing but HTML pages rendered dynamically by Django. We also learn how dynamic database data can be injected into these templates by passing context. We also learn how to create detailed views for products and handling hardcoded URLs associated with these detail views.

Section 6: Adding Styling To Django Project With CSS & Tailwind

After making a barebones app, we now learn how to style up our Django app. There are multiple CSS frameworks and libraries that can be used for styling apps but the one we will be using is Tailwind CSS. It is one of the most modern ways of styling the webpage. With its utility classes we can style every element of our webpage inline without having to create an external CSS file for it. We will learn how to setup Tailwind for a Django project, how to create a navigation bar with it and also how to stye out Django powered webpages with Tailwind.

Section 7: Form & CRUD Operations In Django

Every web application has to perform basic operations like create, read, update & delete data which is also termed as CRUD. In this section we will learn how to design forms in Django so that the end user of our website could perform all these four operations without any issues. Once you learn how to implement CRUD in Django you will be capable of building almost any basic web application in Django.

Section 8: Authentication

It important that we limit certain features of our website to registered users and this is exactly what we will be learning in this section. We learn how to register a user to our Django app, how to login a user and how to control access to certain pages and certain actions to just these logged in users. We also learn how to design the logout functionality so that the users could log out of our application. This entire process is called authentication and we will learn how to implement authentication in our Django app.

Section 9: Creating User Profile

Every registered user must have their own profile, in this section we will start off by learning how to add a functionality that allows every user to create their own profile. We will then learn how to associate a user with the products which they have posted for selling on our Django web app. This can be done by using relationships and keys between two models. We will connect the user model with the product model so that every product would be associated with a user. We will also create a listing page for every user where they can view all the products listed by them on our web app.

Section 10: Class Based Views In Django

We have already learned about the function based view in the earlier part of the course but there is an alternative and a cleaner approach of creating views and that is using class based views. In this section we will re-create every single function based view which is present in our application into a class based view and in the process also learn about the generic views offered by Django such as the ListView, DetailView, CreateView, UpdateView & the DeleteView. we also learn how to add a redirect URL to these views as well.
