Vincent William S. Django for Professionals: Production websites with Python & Django (1735467235)

Completely updated for Django 3.1

Django for Professionals takes your web development skills to the next level, teaching you how to build production-ready websites with Python and Django.

Once you have learned the basics of Django there is a massive gap between building simple 'toy apps' and what it takes to build a 'production-ready' web application suitable for deployment to thousands or even millions of users.

In the book you'll learn how to:

• Build a Bookstore website from scratch
• Use Docker and PostgreSQL locally to mimic production settings
• Implement advanced user registration with email
• Write comprehensive tests
• Adopt advanced security and performance improvements
• Add search and file/image uploads

If you want to take advantage of all that Django has to offer, Django for Professionals is a comprehensive best practices guide to building and deploying modern websites.
Reviews

'If you're looking for a guide into the world of Django, then the three-step of Django for Beginners, Django for APIs, and Django for Professionals is ideal: get up and running, get into APIs, which are a cornerstone of modern app development, and then add the bits you need to your fledging app into production, from databases and static files, to user accounts and security. It's a long road. Will's books are an awesome companion.'-CARLTON GIBSON, Django Fellow and Django REST Framework core contributor
