Deploying the Application to the Cloud
Our project is currently running on our local machine. To make this project accessible to others, we need to deploy it on a server on the internet. A popular way to do this is by deploying our Django project on PythonAnywhere, as it is free to use for small websites. Let’s see how to deploy our application to the cloud.
In this chapter, we will be covering the following topics:
- Managing GitHub and Git
- Cloning your code onto PythonAnywhere
- Configuring virtual environments
- Setting up your web app
- Configuring static files
By the end of the chapter, you will have the knowledge and ability to deploy small Python applications on the cloud.
