Django is a framework designed to balance rapid web development with high performance. It handles high levels of user traffic and interaction, integrates with a variety of databases, and collects and processes data in real time. This book follows a task-based approach to guide you through developing with the Django 2.1 framework, starting with setting up and configuring Docker containers and a virtual environment for your project. You'll learn how to write reusable pieces of code for your models and manage database changes. You'll work with forms and views to enter and list data, applying practical examples using templates and JavaScript together for the optimum user experience. This cookbook helps you to adjust the built-in Django administration to fit your needs and sharpen security and performance to make your web applications as robust, scalable, and dependable as possible. You'll also explore integration with Django CMS, the popular content management suite. In the final chapters, you'll learn programming and debugging tricks and discover how collecting data from different sources and providing it to others in various formats can be a breeze. By the end of the book, you'll learn how to test and deploy projects to a remote dedicated server and scale your application to meet user demands.

Django 2 Web Development Cookbook is well organized and very detailed. This is a reference guide you'll want on hand or a great place to start if you are new to developing with Django. Jake even takes the time to explore and detail setting up your environment and covers a variety of approaches for doing so. If you are looking for a book that will help expand your knowledge and improve your Django 2 development, start here.

I liked this book. People who are interested in Phython, Docker & Django will most probably be interested in reading this book. Readers can gain knowledge. This book was very well written with ample examples and sample codes.

Charudatta Katdare Dec 20, 2018

Using the book for a month now and have to save most of the scenarios required for development in Django are covered. The examples provided are very useful and explanation concise. The book should benefit both beginners and advanced developers in Django.

I'm biased in regards to reviewing this book. I've worked with Jake Kronika in the past and I would work with him again in a heartbeat.That stated, the book so far as I have read it is an authoritative, comprehensive, decisive guide that is better than anything technical I've written (but see my author bookshelf for mostly non-IT works, some of which have good reviews ).I have looked through the title briefly, and I regard my free review copy as an informational windfall. I've looked at it a bit, and I expect I'll be diving in full force next Django project!

Cavatica Sep 19, 2019

Not what I was looking for or expected. Amazon says "a basic understanding of the Django framework will be beneficial", but the book says go read the standard Django tutorial. And the first chapter is about virtualenv and docker and gets bogged down at the Unix command line, in all kinds of configuration minutiae.
