Web Development with Django and Python

Creating modern web applications requires a solid foundation in database management, routing, and server-side logic. Django provides a structured, "batteries-included" framework that allows you to build secure and scalable web applications quickly using Python. In this text-based course, you will transition from writing basic Python scripts to developing fully functional, database-backed web applications. You will learn how to structure your projects using industry-standard patterns, handle user data safely, and implement modern development workflows. What you'll learn: Understand the core Model-View-Template (MVT) architecture of Django; Configure modern virtual environments and manage project dependencies cleanly; Build and migrate relational databases using Django's powerful Object-Relational Mapper (ORM); Create dynamic templates and handle user input securely with Django forms; Implement user authentication, registration, and session management; Write basic unit tests to verify your application's logic and routing. The course begins with foundational concepts, guiding you through the installation and configuration of your first Django project. You will then progress through step-by-step written explanations and code exercises to build out database models, views, and templates, culminating in a complete web application. This course is designed for beginners who have a basic understanding of Python and want to enter the world of web development. No prior experience with Django or web frameworks is required.
