Description

In my opinion learning from others is about not doing the mistakes they already did and speed up your learning process through learning from the common best practices right away. With this course I want to save you time to learn Django the hard way without guidance and instead kick-start your Django career with all the right tools and best practices in place.

Within four hours you will be able to bring your first website live… running with the Django framework.

What are we going to build?

Many of you might read books, others blogs and so on. All we do in common is absorbing knowledge. Hearing about it is one thing. In order to internalize it and make it your own, you have to repeat it. With this project we build "Scio", the source of YOUR knowledge. Whenever you read a quote or a piece of knowledge you want to remember, just save it in Scio. Make it the homepage in your browser and whenever you open a new tab, Scio will be ready with a valuable piece of knowledge you decided to remember. Sounds cool? Let's build it together.
