Web Applications using Python and Django

In this post, we will learn to Create Web Applications using Python and Django.

When it comes to web development back-ends, there are many alternatives, from PHP, Java, and C# to GoLang and Ruby. Python also has many options to implement a powerful web application service. One of the most used web frameworks is Django.

Django provides a full-featured web development framework, and automated tools for a straightforward development. In this post we create a full-featured basic web application using Python and Django, with the most common features for any web application:

• Install Python and Django
• Create the base Django Web application project
• Create an application inside the Django project.
• Create the main database and tables for administration
• Run the web application locally

Then, in the next posts we will cover additional topics:

• Create new models for data processing
• Adding your models to the admin interface

Finally, we will work in a modularized web implementation and deployment:

• Front-end web development with templates
• Publish and deploy your application on Heroku
