Do It! Django + Bootstrap: The Definitive Guide to Python Web Development

The 'standard' of Python web development!
Web Development A to Z: Learn while Building 💬

Lecture topic 😊

This course is for Python users who want to do web development. You can create your own blog site using django, one of the most representative web frameworks in the Python camp. After following this course to the end, you will all be able to create your own blog site at doitdjango.com . You can have a website like this.

In this course, you can learn everything from HTML, CSS, JavaScript to Bootstrap, Python web framework Django, Docker, and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Implement the necessary functions one by one and solve the difficulties you encounter yourself, and build up your overall understanding of web development and problem-solving skills. Let's get started right now!

This course is for those who want to learn < Do it! Django + Bootstrap Python Web Development Essentials> published by Easy Publishing through video. As of 2021, it includes additional technologies that are commonly used recently, and reflects as much feedback as possible from students who took the course in 2019.

Let's start web development with me, shall we? 👉

This lecture is for these people.

"Python Basics
I learned,
What to do now
"I'm worried."

"What I've learned so far
Based on Python
Something to show
I want to make it."

"Good web service
An idea came to me,
Where to start
It's vague."

It's also good to hear from people like these.

• "I'm just starting out as a developer, but I don't have a website to introduce myself yet."
• "I've tried other programming languages, but I need to develop a website with Python."

Anyone can take the course, even if they have no experience in web development.

The lecture is structured so that even those who have only taken the basic Python course and have no knowledge of the web can easily follow it. From the stage of installing Python and setting up a development environment to developing a Google login function and using Docker to serve it on an Amazon web server, try it out.

What will you look like after taking this course?

This course aims to develop and deploy a blog that you can use and operate yourself. Therefore, it includes all the features required for actual web development, such as setting writing permissions, social login, and security. When you finish this course, you will have a fully functional website like doitdjango.com .

In this lecture, you will learn:

Basic Settings

Install the programs required for Python web development so that you can work in the same environment as your students.

Laying the foundations of the front-end

Most of the websites we view on our computer or smartphone web browsers are composed of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. By creating your own self-introduction page, you will understand the roles of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and learn how to use them.

Bootstrap Basics

Bootstrap is a toolkit that pre-designs the components commonly needed for web development. Using Bootstrap, even developers with little experience in web design can create a decent page, and create a responsive web page that can respond to various screen sizes.

Getting started with Django

Now that you know how to create screens, it's time to learn the structure of a website. Learn the concepts of a typical website structure and how to implement it with Django, a Python web framework.

Setting up URLs; FBV (Function Based View) and CBV (Class Based View)

As you implement blog functionality, you will learn how to set up URLs for your website pages and develop them to provide the information you need.

Static files & media files

You will learn how to use CSS and JavaScript files in a website built with Django, and also learn how to implement file upload functionality on your website.

template_tags & conditional statements

Learn how to write conditional statements within HTML files.

Test Driven Development (TDD)

When programming, there are often times when the program becomes too complicated and it is difficult to find the cause when a problem occurs. Sometimes, even if the cause is identified, the source code is so complicated that it is difficult to touch it.

However, with test-driven development, we can reduce this difficult situation. From Section 8 onwards, we will understand the concept of test-driven development and apply it to our project.

Modularizing template files

Elements that are used repeatedly should be modularized for easy management. Learn how to modularize and manage elements that should be maintained throughout the website, such as navigation bars and footers.

Relations - Many-to-One Relationships

When developing a web, there are times when you need to connect different pieces of information. For example, blog post and author information correspond to a many-to-one relationship. One member can write multiple blog posts. While learning about many-to-one relationships, we will teach you how to implement the author function of a post and the category function of a blog post.

Relations - Many-to-Many Relationships

If the relationship between a post and its author is a many-to-one relationship, Instagram's hashtags are a many-to-many relationship. As you implement the tag function of your blog, you will naturally learn about many-to-many relationships.

Implementing post creation and editing functionality using a form

Django provides a tool called 'form' to easily develop a function to create a new post. In this lecture, we will learn how Django's form works. In this process, we will implement the blog post creation and editing functions.

Using external libraries

When developing a web using Python and Django, it is easy to use libraries developed by others for our project. We will use Django crispy form to make the form developed in Section 12 look pretty, add markdown functions using Django-markdownx, and develop Google login and email login functions using Django-allauth.

Developing a comment feature

If it's a blog, it should have a comment function. While implementing the comment function, we will review the Django functions we learned earlier.

Implementing other convenience features

Through pagination, you will learn how to control the display of too many articles on one page. You will also practice JavaScript by implementing a search function and utilize Django's filter function.

Creating a homepage and self-introduction page

We'll implement important but often overlooked pages so that your website can become your portfolio and face.

Preparing to move to Docker

Now it's time to prepare to move the results we've developed so far to the Amazon Web Server. We'll use Docker to provide the same environment without major issues in other OS environments.

Along with using Docker, we will show you how to use a specialized DB (postgreSQL) program and a web server program (Nginx) so that it can become a web service for actual public release, not just a test web page.

Deploying on Amazon Lightsail

In order for the website we created to be serviced 24 hours a day, we need to rent a server. Amazon Web Services provides a service called Lightsail that rents out inexpensive servers. We will learn how to upload and service the website we created on this server.

Connecting a domain

Now that you've purchased your domain, it's time to connect it to your website. This process includes getting HTTPS security certification.
