› Django is a Python-based web framework that allows for rapid development of web applications. It handles common tasks like database abstraction, forms, sessions, site maps, and administration interfaces out of the box. Django emphasizes reusability and modularity through reusable apps and a MTV (model-template-view) pattern that encourages DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principles. Popular sites like Instagram and Pinterest use Django for its flexibility and productivity.

- 3. › Django is a high-level Python Web framework. › Rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. › Focus on writing your app without needing to reinvent the wheel. › It’s free and open source. From https://www.djangoproject.com/ What is Django ?

- 5. Enterprise Point Of View Free and Open-source. Thousand of free reusable apps already pluggable into one’s project. Compatible with all the main databases. Compatible with all the JS and CSS Frameworks. Why Django ?
- 6. Developer Point Of View Use and learn a new language: Python. DB Management and ORM built-in. Rich documentation. Active community. Modular architecture. DRY Principle (Don’t Repeat Yourself). MVC Pattern reinterpreted in MTV. Why DJAngo ?
- 7. Questions? What is Django ?
- 8. Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language. Platform indipendent. Combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. Very rich community and many libraries and frameworks. It’s free and open source. What is python ?
- 9. Open google and search for: most used programming languages 2014 Who use Python?
- 10. Syntax: No “;” and “{ }” Blocks starts with “:” and are identified by Indentation No statically typed. You don’t need to declare any variable You can mix object-oriented and imperative programming. What is python ?

- 14. Easy to install: Download and Install Python: https://www.python.org/downloads/ Install pip ( https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py ): Install Django Django’s Capabilities python get-pip.py pip install django
- 15. › Don’t worry there is an IDE that can do these dirties things for you: › Or you can use Eclipse with pyDev (http://pydev.org/ ) › Ready to use: To start a new project just type in a cmd: Then starts a new app with: Django’s Capabilities django-admin.py startproject mysite python manage.py startapp polls
- 16. Let’s look at the structure the commands have created: Django’s Capabilities Project root Project package App package Project configurations files Application files
- 17. All in one: › With these two commands we have: Created the project structure Installed the ORM Installed a development server Installed and configured an SQLite database Installed the admin interface Installed a ready to use unit-test environement Django’s Capabilities – Create the database tables based on the models found in the installed apps. – Create the database for the authentication system included in django – Create a superuser account for the authentication system – Set up a system for propagating change makes to the models into the database schema python manage.py migrate
- 18. Modularity: You can take existing Python packages or Django apps and compose them into your own web project. You only need to write the parts that make your project unique. Built-in reusable apps: django.contrib.admin – The admin site. django.contrib.auth – An authentication system. django.contrib.contenttypes – A framework for content types. django.contrib.sessions – A session framework. django.contrib.messages – A messaging framework. django.contrib.staticfiles – A framework for managing static files. Django’s Capabilities
- 19. Third party reusable apps: Django REST framework is a framework to build REST APIs. Celery is the standard to manage asynchronous, distributed job queues. Django mailer provides a backend for sending email django-allauth allows for both local and social authentication django-grappelli A jazzy skin for the Django Admin-Interface django-tables2 An app for creating HTML tables django-dajax Easy to use library to create asynchronous presentation logic with django And much more…. Django’s Capabilities › All these apps can be installed simply typing: pip install <app_name>
- 20. How to write reusable apps: The app we have just created is already reusable! Just copy and paste it to another project and link it in the settings.py Of course there is a more complete way to package an app: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/reusable- apps/#packaging-your-app How to find more apps: Check https://www.djangopackages.com/ a directory of reusable apps, sites, tools, and more for your Django projects Ask to the community: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/django-it Try to search them: www.google.com Django’s Capabilities
- 21. DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) The DRY principal was one of the fundamental concepts that Django was designed around. The DRY principal is all about keeping code simple and non repeating. This allows developers to reuse code they wrote for one project in another project. To help developers adhere to the DRY principle, Django forces users to use the MVC by initially creating a standard project structure. Django’s Capabilities
- 22. A different interpretation of the MVC: MTV: Model View Template In django interpretation of MVC, the “view” describes the data that gets presented to the user. It’s not necessarily how the data looks, but which data is presented. The view describes which data you see, not how you see it. Furthermore, it’s sensible to separate content from presentation – which is where templates come in. In Django, a “view” describes which data is presented, but a view normally delegates to a template, which describes how the data is presented. Django’s Capabilities
- 24. Deployment Strategies: In the cloud: Heroku Google Appengine On a remote machine: NGINX + uWSGI or Gunicorn Apache + mod_wsgi Django’s Capabilities
