More about the book

This updated edition of The Definitive Guide to Django, now aligned with Django 1.1, serves as the ultimate tutorial and reference for this popular web development framework. With the forward–compatibility guarantee that Django offers, this guide is set to remain relevant for years. Django, the Python-based counterpart to Ruby’s Rails, is a leading topic in web development. The second part explores advanced features such as generating non-HTML content (RSS feeds, PDFs), caching, and user management. The appendices provide a comprehensive reference to various configuration options and commands. Readers will learn to build web applications, covering dynamic web pages, the Django templating system, database interaction, and web forms. Higher-level concepts like caching, security, and deployment are also discussed, making this book ideal for anyone looking to leverage the powerful Django framework for rapid web development.
