This past week I began the Django application development process. This is my first experience developing with Django, and I am excited by what I have learned about Django in just a week and the applications of this knowledge moving forward.

Django provides a framework for web applications to use Python and interact with a database, and it is relatively quick and simple to create web prototypes using this framework. Additionally, the official Django Project documentation is well written and easy to follow.

If you are wanting to get started with Django and are looking for resources, here are a few that I used this week and found to be very helpful:

After using the above resources, I now have an understanding of how to store and interact with data using Django. I have designed and begun to implement a strategy for generating and storing moviebarcode data from the project’s existing code.

Going forward

Next week, I will continue working on the Django Application, and I aim to have the application’s main functionality developed.
