Discover the Django web application framework and get started building Python-based web applications. This book takes you from the basics of Django all the way through to cutting-edge topics such as creating RESTful applications.

Along with material on data access with SQL queries, youll have all you need to get up and running with Django 1.11 LTS, which is compatible with Python 2 and Python 3.
Once youve built your web application, youll need to be the admin, so the next part of the book covers how to enforce permission management with users and groups. This technique allows you to restrict access to URLs and content, giving you total control of your data. In addition, youll work with and customize the Django admin site, which provides access to a Django projects data.
After reading and using this book, youll be able to build a Django application top to bottom and be ready to move on to more advanced or complex Django application development.
