Python Django Tutorial - Build A Todo App

[@Flatron303]

My suggestion for future videos like this one is to show fully functional project/website that we are going to build throughout tutorial on the beginning of the video, so it may be more exciting following along :) Other than that, thanks, awesome as always !

[@giraffes2815]

I'm glad you kept the mishaps in because it helps us understand how to read errors!

[@jirikadlec1058]

Nice hands-on tutorial! I liked that your code did not always work from the start and that you experienced various errors. I like how you explained the reason for each error and how to fix it.

[@ryanzwaagstra6606]

@Traversy Media... This was an absolutely amazing guide. I am new to both Python and Django. You made so much extremely clear and easily understood. Thank you so much for your time. You even showed how to troubleshoot a little. I ran into a few mistakes on my own doing and was able to work through them in the same fashion you worked through yours. Thanks again.

[@pedromondragon6631]

All new people wanting to learn django, first go to another video and install django with a virtual environment, because Brad doesnt do it, then you can come back and continue watching the lesson, which is great, but you may want to install the virtual environment first.

[@JesusGil90]

I also recommend using Pycharm IDE

[@abbyadams7300]

I'm glad I'm not the only one that has to adjust the urls routing multiple times.

[@redsnakeintown]

You can open any code editor by shotcuts , in the project folder type atom . This will open atom on the project folder, this works for other text editors too..

[@xx482]

I am very happy that you have done a video on Python Django .. Awesome .. I have learned JS by watching your videos .. Thanks a lot , you inspired me to learn Javascript

[@ytSpoiler]

Very good tutorial. In my opinion best part is create own 'add form'.

[@marktwain3083]

Instead of running atom and opening your project folder, you could simply run "atom ." in your terminal while being in your project's folder.

[@codybythesea]

excellent vid on Django. Maybe to complete the Todo list, we can try to implement a delete button

[@MallikaKhullar]

Hey Brad, thanks for these awesome videos! Just one suggestion: it would be so great if you could incorporate some explanation with the video. For example, when you're doing the "def __str__(self): return self" bit, it would have been nice to understand what __str__ is actually.

[@alexyap3659]

you probably already know this by now but if i understand correctly (mind you, i'm new to django) the __str__() function is a built-in django function that when defined creates a string representation of your object

Just what I needed to understand django's basic, thanks a lot !

[@jebbush2964]

Thank you for the video tutorials @TraversyMedia. Don't mind those who envy you. You are an excellent instructor.

[@Colstonewall]

Very nice tutorial! Only thing I would've changed is putting the header and footer in index.html, then using {% extend 'index.html' %} in your other templates. . .And I wouldn't use hard coded URL's in the templates either. Name them in urls.py, then in the templates use . Anyways, thank you!!

[@TraversyMedia]

Yeah I figured a layout was a better than what I did with the partials. I almost changed it but said screw it. Its easy enough for people to figure out

Shouldn't be better using Python 3.5 instead of Python 2.7. Years passed and we continue to use an "obsolete" version.

[@everythingisnothing8137]

2.7 is the best version!

[@empyrerhomann6743]

2.7 is never obsolete ... Please know what you say!!!!

[@Artificial_Intelligence_AI]

I don't know much but Python 2.7 still comes with the latest mac OSX (high sierra) as the unique python version installed (I think you can also install python 3 but you can't remove python 2.7) so it has to be because they consider that is not obsolete yet.

[@evilface1010101]

Python3 was released in 2008 or 2009 and the community was very resistant since it was not backwards compatible with Python2. There were some significant syntax changes. For example, in Python2 the following code ... print "Hello, World" is completely legal. However, in Python3 this would return an error... as the correct syntax is ... print("Hello, World") You can see how this would be extremely difficult to maintain in even the smallest of projects. With that said, many packages still support Python2 and it has taken some time for some to get on board with Python3. The community is making great steps in adopting Python3 over the next few years but Python2 is by no means, "Obsolete"

[@alaskacitygirl]

2.7 is currently being deprecated and will no longer be maintained as of 2020. Anyone who's afraid to use the word 'obsolete' is being overly sensitive 😜 pythonclock.org/

[@Bircalences]

Nice tutorial. I tried to follow using atom.io but I think it sucks, it can't see the object names in imported py modules, so it can't help with the syntax. I even installed atom-django packages, but they didn't help either. I'll return to use PyCharm. Coding python with PyCharm is x times faster than with atom, because it handles the syntax without pain. Atom is good with html/css/js but not with python, imho.

command prompts??? what is this 1985!!

[@ndemou]

:-) I totally get your feeling. Heck command prompts (CLI's) are even more old-fashioned than that (like in 1965 instead of 1985). However make no mistake: fashion has nothing to do with functionality. Both the GUI and the CLI have their role their strengths and their weaknesses. Heavily graphical oriented programs from every part of the spectrum (like AutoCad and Minecraft) have a CLI. There's a reason. Invest time in the CLI and you'll find the reason (just skip the awful windows command prompt -- all the ugliness of a CLI and none of its powers -- bash and the GNU utils are a grate start that I know of and I hear good words about power shell but haven't tried it). It worths repeating anyway: don't let fashion dictate such choices.
