Course Description
Welcome to "Building Web Applications with Django and PostgreSQL"! This course is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of how to develop web applications using the Django web framework in combination with the PostgreSQL database. Django is a popular web framework written in Python that allows developers to build robust and scalable web applications quickly and efficiently, while PostgreSQL is a powerful open-source relational database management system known for its reliability and performance.
In this course, you will learn how to build web applications from scratch using Django and PostgreSQL. You will start with the fundamentals of Django, including setting up a development environment, creating models, views, and templates, and handling user authentication and authorization. You will also learn how to work with Django's built-in admin interface and form files.
As you progress, you will dive deeper into advanced topics, such as working with Django's ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) to interact with the PostgreSQL database, handling form submissions, and integrating third-party libraries. You will also learn best practices for structuring Django projects, handling user sessions, and securing your web applications against common web vulnerabilities.
Throughout the course, you will work on practical projects that will allow you to apply the concepts you've learned and build real-world web applications. You will also gain hands-on experience in using PostgreSQL as your database backend, including designing database schemas, performing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations, and optimizing database performance.
By the end of this course, you will have a solid foundation in building web applications with Django and PostgreSQL. You will be able to create dynamic and interactive web applications that are secure, scalable, and maintainable, making you a skilled and proficient web developer.
