Best Practices for Django

by Daniel Greenfeld (speaking)

Section
Workshops
Technical level
Intermediate

Objective

Django is a great framework, but there is a lot of knowledge that isn't, or can't be in the core documentation. This talk covers various tips, tricks, patterns, code snippets, and techniques that myself and others have picked up over the years. Presented by one of the authors of Two Scoops of Django, it expands on that reference.

Description

This talk will cover the following areas:

  • Model Composition
  • App Cache Strategies
  • REST APIs: Resources versus Remote Procedural Calls
  • django.db.migrations
  • Class-based views
  • Function-based views
  • Utility functions
  • Python 2 vs Python 3
  • New packages to make development easier and faster
  • Much more!

Requirements

Something on which to take notes.

    The topic looks very vast for a workshop. Can you give us more details how all the dots will be connected during 3 hour hands on workshop ?
