great video. i am using cbv from the beginning, it's clean and easy. you just need a little bit focus for using CBV. prepare a sample code for class base view with having get, post, get_queryset and context. copy that code modify it according to your need. this thing can be easily done in Generics View class.

greate video. if i had to work with django, i'll use mostly function based view because i think class based views are way too verbose in my opinion and not to forget that with all the magic django does under the scene, good luck when trying to do custom operations. I would only use class based views when dealing with forms. Instead of creating two separate functions or create a single function and check for the method (get or post) you can encapsulate all the code in a single class and have something cleaner.

felt in love with CBV as a beginner and now find it hard to use FBV lol funny. though CBV are complex sometimes

Hello Dennis, Very easy Could you perhaps combine Django and htmx in your upcoming videos?

[mircagardenman]

Shout out Dennis. Thank you for the content... its very helpful. Just a quick request. Please add some more calculation, addition / Subtract from the frontend / backend on django. Similar to your Ecommence content, but math focused 🙂.

[gfhfrib]

Hello, should I enroll in Dennis's courses on Udemy in 2023? Will I face any issues the courses being updated long ago?

[Dickens]

Is function based views better for a bigger project??

[MrSubramanish]

did Django has a way to render without refreshing page like ajax

[MOI-sulx]

Dennis can you do a tutorial based on login and logout and authentication on rest framework, it will be very helpful...

Hi, when should I use django signals? I watched one of your videos about signals and I was thought that you could make the same thing just by adding a profile for a user in the registration page that takes 2 lines of code. Pls answer. Thanks.

In your studyBud video, you used if request.method == 'POST' throughout the video, is there any difference between the 'POST' and GET you used in this new video?


Or rather, what is the difference between GET request and POST request?
