Web applications using the Django web framework. Django is a free, open source web framework written in the Python programming language. In this post I will outline the steps taken to build a web application using Django.

I followed some tutorials and a book Django for Beginners: Build websites with Python and Django by Vincent, William S.

The book goes through how to build some web applications such as a blog app with forms and user accounts and a newspaper app with forms that uses a custome user model, email integration, authorisation, permissions etc.

The simple newspaper app is deployed on Heroku at https://angecc-news.herokuapp.com/.
