Learn how to develop, add detail, and refine web applications using Django.

Become a Django Developer

The focus of this module is to learn Django web development by example. We will be developing a web application step-by-step by setting up URLs, views, and templates of different web pages. The module walks us through various useful concepts to give our app a real look. For example, we’ll learn to create and manage user accounts, implement search filters, upload images, use Bootstrap styling, and apply cloud deployment using AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Heroku.

Every concept is presented with an executable environment so we can get hands-on experience. By the end of the module, we will have a real web application using Django.
