Description

You may have got your first Django developer job after a six-week bootcamp or online course, and that’s great, but what’s next? In small companies, mentorship can be hard to come by and gaining the traits of a senior developer without that can take a long time. This is precisely where Django in Production comes into play. This book will first delve into the true meaning of "good practice" and help you understand the rationale behind industry professionals building websites in specific ways to develop a solid foundation for your Django projects. Next, you will uncover hidden Django secrets through hands-on exploration, leveraging the power of Docker and version control to your advantage. You will gain insights into mastering Git hooks for efficient code maintenance, establishing a robust CI pipeline, and harnessing the capabilities of AWS Beanstalk. These tools will empower you to develop highly scalable products—an essential skill set for aspiring developers transitioning from junior to senior roles. Later, you will understand the significance of monitoring and be introduced to industry-standard tools utilized by professionals for effective monitoring practices. By the end of this book, you will have set yourself apart from the crowd, equipped with the knowledge and expertise to thrive as a seasoned Django developer.

Who is this book for?

This book is for Python and Django developers who aspire to elevate their Django skills to an advanced level. It assumes an intermediate level of proficiency in Python and Django programming and aims to impart comprehensive knowledge on optimizing the production environment and utilizing associated toolsets.

Its a must have book for Django developers, I have been coding in Django from last 5 years still learnt many things on how to write scalable Django project. Really liked the no-non-sense practical approach that touches almost every aspect of development that is super useful for beginners as well as experts alike.

There are many available resources to learn the basics of Django that teach you how to develop simple web applications in minutes. However, they often use the basic Django elements without providing relevant explanations. On the other hand, this book takes Django to an entirely new level.This book is not for novice Django developers; it is for those who already have knowledge of the basics of Django and want to create more complex, scalable, and maintainable applications.This book gives you dozens of tips and tricks to improve your Django code and make it more professional and industrial-level. For example, it explains: (i) how to abstract Django classes with helpful methods that can be extended by your Django models. (ii) how to break the Django models into packages, with each model in a separate file. (iii) how to use indexes to retrieve data faster. (iv) how to use serializers to validate and save data from JSON formats. (v) how to customize the Django admin panel. And (vi) how to manage caching, throttling, logging, asynchronous programming, tests, deployment, monitoring, and more.You will also find short pieces of code and executions that demonstrate some of these concepts in a practical way. This book is highly recommended.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published.
