Course Description

Welcome to The Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Django. If you're brand new to Django, or have gotten lost in online tutorials, this is the course for you. I'll take you from being anabsolute beginner to actuallycreating threecomplete Django websites. We'll also cover how to publish your sites.

This course starts with a Python Refresher. Django is a web framework written in Python. If you're new to Python, or just a bit rusty, this section will get you up to speed as quickly as possible. You don't need to be a Python expert to make Django website,but a base knowledge is needed. In the Python RefresherI'll teach you a new concept, show you some examples, then present you with acoding challenge to make sure you've understood that concept.

The threewebsiteswe'll make are as follows:

Pig Latin Translator - A simple two-page website that turns any text into Pig Latin! Creating this website will teach you the fundamentals of Django.
Your Personal Blog - Don't use WordPress or Tumblr to share your thoughts;make your own blog! This website will teach you how to work with a database and data models. We'll also cover how to work with both static and user uploaded images!
Reddit Clone - This is the most advanced and complicated website we'll make in the course. With a big focus on creating user accounts and authentication, this website will teach you the more advanced topics that this course covers.

Also included in the course is a section showing you how to deploy your blog to a server and publish it for the world to see! I'll thentake you step by step through working with a Ubuntu Linux server that will run your Django code 24/7.

What are the key topics covered in this course?

URL DispatchingFunction and Class Based Views (FBV v. CBV)How to start a new projectHow to create apps within a project and why they're importantRunning your project in a virtual environment using VirtualenvPublishing your site on a VPS (Virtual Private Server) running Ubuntu LinuxWorking with templatesDebuggingGunicornHandling GET and POST requestsWorking with a Database and ModelsAdmin InterfaceStatic and user uploaded imagesAuthentication and User accounts

Instructor Details

Nick Walter

Hi! I'm Nick, and I love to code.About five years ago I decided that I wanted to learn to code, but I had limited access to programming resources, and I was getting frustrated with all of the YouTube videos and online tutorials out there. I experimented, struggled, and definitely failed a lot, but I finally got the hang of it, so I decided that I wanted to change the way that people learned to code, and I started teaching. My experience as an online student has directly influenced my teaching style, because I know what it is like to be in your shoes.
When Apple announced their new programming language, Swift, in 2014, I made my big online teachingdebutandcreated the internet's first Swift course.Since that time, I have become a full-time online instructor and I now have courses not only in Swift, but also in iOS, Android,Django, Kotlin, Python, HTML, Blockchain, etc.I have also created five iOSapps from scratch that are currently live in the App Store and arebeing used by thousands of users worldwide.

I love sharing my excitement for coding with my students, and I try to make learning as fun and as easy as possible. Thanks for being part of mycoding community!

By Francisco Castillo Ibarra on 7/2/2020

Great teacher, great course!
Only thing could be to have some sidenotes about how to implement some terminal/cmd commands on windows instead of mac, but without that, it's one of the best courses i took

Clear and succinct

By Antonio Jos Bottino de Moraes on 6/8/2020

Nick is very good in teaching and getting the most of your time. He pass tons of info, detailed when needed or may just introduce topics to you at a level you can go on in the course and take a deeper view later at your own as he shows valuable resources from getting info. Very nice person, he will pass by your implementation and give it his plus; he is always available to respond your posts.

u r really doing ur job great

By Louise Jessen on 3/3/2020

Great course, learned a lot! But I think it would have been amazing, that you had illustrated the vote up/down correctly with it only should be possible to do once for each user, maybe it complex, but it would have given the extra star to the course. Because then you had a much more solid foundation to begin trying to build your own projects ^^ else fine course.

By Guillermo Espina on 11/6/2019

It's a great course to get you started Django. It teaches you everything you need to know to start developing apps on your own and even to upload your app to a server !
Nick is really good at explaining everything!
If you already know Django and you are searching for an advance course, this is definitely not it.

By Reuben Izkul on 10/18/2019

It is pretty good, I like the fact you actually see everything happening. Allot of guides say do this do that but miss out everything you do in between.
It is also really clear and the video/audio quality is good.

By Ashley Johnson on 10/4/2019

Honestly wish he had some way of showing how to install django in a Windows environment, which is a tad different, I've wasted a lot of time trying to figure out where he left off.

By Alhassan Atama Isiaka on 8/3/2019

Instructor is clear and concise in his explanations and have knowledge about the subject domain
