28:39 Review of how to create templates to override django allauth templates

First, we build a simple application and proceed to installing the django allauth package which will provide the tools to allow us to authenticate with a wide range of services including Google.

Next we configure the django allauth package defining the configuration within our settings file. We migrate the database and view the new tables.

Finally we build a simple home template and configure the URLs before heading over to Google to configure the API settings.

We pull this all together and demonstrate the login system by authenticating with a Google account. I take you through the basic principles of overriding the django allauth templates building a login page.

Great video. More tutorials on useful django packages will be helpful. There's not many videos of django 3 on YouTube. Would also be great if you provide videos of django 3 new features.
