Course Overview
About Course
This 40‑hour Django training provides a full-stack journey into building, testing, and deploying robust Python web applications. Starting with Django’s philosophy and setup, participants learn to model data using the ORM, build modular URLs and views, and craft dynamic interfaces with the templating engine. They then progress to form handling and validation, integrating Django’s form and ModelForm systems.
User authentication, authorization, and permission schemes are introduced to secure web apps. The course emphasizes quality development through Django’s testing framework, teaching unit test writing, test clients, and code coverage strategies. Learners then expand their skills by building RESTful APIs using Django REST Framework, handling serialization, authentication, and endpoint management.
Deployment is demystified with coverage of WSGI/ASGI integration, containerization via Docker, and deployment to production environments using uWSGI/Nginx. The final module consolidates learning through a capstone project—developing and deploying a real-world application like a blog, e-commerce, or portfolio.
Training includes hands-on labs, live mentor reviews, real-world projects, and career support materials such as resume guidance and interview prep. Graduates leave with a polished portfolio, deep technical understanding, and the ability to confidently design, test, secure, and deploy Django web applications in enterprise or startup environments.
