Build a real world website from the ground up 🚀
Django framework is trusted and used by some of the worlds top companies 🏆
Scalability, versatility, security, community and more!
Django helped me build and sell my first website for $41k
I was searching for a Python framework that would help me build a lab management system (that I then sold to my boss - watch the full story here).
I started with Flask, but all it had was a server setup and everything else I would have to figure out on my own.
Then I discovered Django...
It provided me with ALL the tools. Everything from authentication to a templating engine to a great package for a rest API. Added bonus: they have great community support around it and great infrastructure.
I didn't have to worry that it wasn’t scalable,
If it was good enough for YouTube, Spotify, Instagram and all the behemoth of machines, I knew that it would never be an issue for me.
One of the best features about Django is that it has a built in dashboard. You can run one command and already start seeing your data and modify it.
This helped me get the site up and running quicker than expected.
Why Django?
- 💰 Django developers are becoming more in demand as the framework grows in popularity. This means salary increases and competitive pay. Working for a tech company means that learning Django is a valuable skill as a backend or full-stack developer.
- 📈 Scale easily with Django for high traffic websites. This is one of its most popular features. Including built in tools to help you get your site to market fast.
- 🔓 Security is a priority when building any website. Django is used by top brands for this reason. It contains built in security features: SQL injection, cross-site request forgery, and cross-site scripting.
- 🎨 Easily customizable and versatile for any website and company size.
- 🤝 One of Djangos likable features is the community support. You can join forums and Facebook groups for connections and resources.
"The aha moment happens when you understand how easy it is to model your database, performing read and write operations and rendering templates"
I created this course because I felt the same frustration as most students do. That a lot of teachers may be very good but they miss out on the beginners who don’t have the traditional background in education.
I was one of those new developers, like many of you, who didn't have a CS degree.
Many of my students on YouTube asked me to create a Django course because of the way I teach and adapt to students who specifically need guidance with beginner concepts.
When making the course, I kept in mind to make sure that nobody feels left behind.
A lot of students don’t have those core concepts and struggle with following along, while the teacher assumes all of their students have basic CS fundamentals down.
They jump into the course without creating easy, consumable steps.
