Preface

Django is a free, open source web framework for building modern Python web applications.

This book will help you get up and running with the fundamentals of Django. You will start building your first Django app within minutes. The book provides you with short explanations and a practical approach that cover some of the most important Django features, including the Django apps' structure, URLs, views, templates, models, CSS inclusion, image storage, authentication and authorization, the Django admin panel, and much more.

You will develop a movie reviews application across the book chapters. The movie reviews application will be the means to understand straightforward and complex Django concepts and how Django features can be used to implement full-stack web applications.

By the end of this book, you will be able to develop your own Django web applications and deploy them to the cloud.
