Course Description

Django Fundamentals: From First App to a Complete Backend is a practical ebook course designed for anyone who wants to build real backend development skills with Django, one of the most trusted Python web frameworks in Information Technology. You will move from creating a first Django backend project to shaping a maintainable, production minded application that can power websites, dashboards, and APIs.

You will learn how Django project structure supports clean growth as your codebase expands, how apps fit together, and how URL routing connects backend features to reliable endpoints. As you progress, you will model data with the Django ORM, design a solid database layer, and manage migrations so schema changes stay safe and predictable. You will also configure the Django admin to create fast back office interfaces, making it easier to manage content and operational data without building everything from scratch.

Beyond the basics, this course explains how views and the request lifecycle work, with templates introduced briefly to clarify backend pages and server rendered flows. You will build dependable input handling using Django forms and validation, and you will implement authentication and authorization so your backend applications can protect user data and control access properly.

The ebook also prepares you for real deployment scenarios by covering settings and environment configuration for development and production, along with static and media files for assets and user uploads. You will learn performance basics with the Django ORM, recognize common bottlenecks, and apply pragmatic improvements. Finally, you will bridge from a traditional Django backend to Django REST Framework to expose data as APIs in a clean, maintainable way.
