Course Description

Django and Python can seem overwhelming at first, but they don't have to be! In this course I’ll walk you through it step by step and you’ll be building your first web app in MINUTES. You’ll be amazed how quick and easy it is to create very professional looking websites, even if you have no programming or web design experience at all.

Watch over my shoulder as I build a cool To-Do List app step by step right in front of you. You’ll follow along and build your own copy. By the time we’re finished, you’ll have a solid understanding of Django and how to use it to build awesome web apps.

The course contains 28 videos – and is just over 2 hours long. Watch the videos at your own pace, and post questions along the way if you get stuck. You don’t need any special knowledge or software to take this course, though any experience with HTML or CSS is a plus. You don’t even need to know the Python programming language. I’ll walk you through EVERYTHING.

Django is a great web development tool and learning it has never been this easy.

What We'll Build...

We'll build a cool To-Do List app that let's you make lists and save them to a database. You can update items as you complete them to "cross them off the list".

We'll style the website using the popular Bootstrap CSS framework (I'll show you how to use it!)

This course exceeded my expectations. It is narrowly focused on one project from start to end. It provides a solid foundation for a small Django project. I intentionally chose this course even though the lecture hours were less than many other courses. I wanted to see the complete steps to build a project in minimal time. John Elder has a very engaging teaching style and he is very knowledgeable in many areas.

so far so good. It's truly satisfying. Truly recommend for beginners.

Good course - would like to have seen some aspects of testing / version control but understand that this might make the course too long. Really good intro coverage of Django.

Ottimo corso.

By Ali Cool on 8/22/2020

Although the pace was fast, all was explained clearly! I am new to learning code and this was a great course in the sense it pushed me to comprehend it. The quick recap in each video as well as the entire course broken into small chunks helped solidify the content.

By Raul Velez on 8/21/2020

The teacher explains very clearly all the topics and in a simple way. The project that has to be built along the course is fun and interesting. It is a short course, but that teaches you different topics of django/python. I already had experience using Django before, therefore, there were topics that were already familiar for me; but the project is very well structured and very well explained and the final results of the project are cool.

It was a really great course and learned lots of new stuff! The teaching method too was good. Everything was easy to understand.

By Francesco Lilli on 7/22/2020

As a beginner in Python and Django, I am pleased because the lecturer does not expect a student to know much about CS topics in general. Obviously knowing a bit of the basics (as in my case) helps, but I think anyone would be able to follow.

By Madhu H R on 6/27/2020

The course gives a step by step instructions that is easy to follow. Also the instructor helps you and answers your queries if you are stuck.
