Book Description

Django is a high-level web framework that eases the creation of complex, database-driven websites. It emphasizes on the reusability and pluggability of components, rapid development, and the principle of don't repeat yourself. It lets you build high-performing, elegant web applications quickly.

There are several Django tutorials available online, which take as many shortcuts as possible, but leave you wondering how you can adapt them to your own needs. This guide takes the opposite approach by demonstrating how to work around common problems and client requests, without skipping the important details. If you have built a few Django projects and are on the lookout for a guide to get you past the basics and get you solving modern development tasks, this is your book.

Six unique projects will take you through the development process from scratch, leaving no stone unturned. In the first two projects, you will learn everything from adding ranking and voting capabilities to your App to building geospatial queries and APIs. In the third project, we will build an e-commerce platform, complete with a payment processor, basic cart, checkout features, and more! Next, we will get into caching data asynchronously and create a real-time app capable of consuming live updates.

When you're done, you'll have consistent patterns and techniques that you can build on for many projects to come.
