Python from Scratch - Creating a Dynamic Website

We've covered a lot of Python in the last 4 tutorials. Today, we're going to use everything we've learned so far to build a dynamic website with Python. This relies on everything taught in the previous lessons, so if you've never used Python, don't skip them!

I've been looking for months for a comprehensive tutorial like this one. Thank you very very much!

It is great!! I do not have any experience on python. I am PHP developer with symphony experience. It gave me some good idea what is django and how to start with you. Thank you very much for uploading such a nice video. It is very helpful for beginner

This is a solid documentary, I must say. Well prepared and helped me a lot, thank you for sharing.

Great tutorial! :)
It is good to watch a tutorial that is not beginning from the very basics like "what is programming?". I also like that the process is shown from start to finish without an overwhelming amount of info, while still explaining the gist (not just "copy and paste these, and you will have a website").
I think you managed to highlight the main points:
-what pieces one needs to create a website, what are their roles
-how the pieces fit/ work together

Thank you!

Everything I needed to know for an upcoming project. Thanks so much! I'm especially glad you went over the set up on the server too. A lot of other tutorials neglect this part.

Thanks for the video. Python looks like a great language once you get used to it, the problem is the setup, creating the application, starting it, etc, it is really frustrating. Many errors happen and things change a lot from version to version. I am using version 2.7.6 and things are a bit different from yours, for example syntaxes that are no longer used. It should be more simple to develop in this, like it is with Java using Eclipse or Netbeans. JDK + IDE and it's all working. No need to run commands on terminals or whatsoever. If it was as that I think more people would be interested.
Anyway, I believe Python will get there one day and for now we just keep practicing and dealing with the frustration. :)

this is a great post. its cleared up a lot of the mystery around web apps. all thats left is to figure out how to get apache to talk to django

[eveakospokua]

thank you so much for your videos. And if anyone is having problems getting this tutorial running in the python 2.7 and django latest version 1.8.2, check this out -

1. When setting up you url pattern you need to put in 'blog.views.home' not 'FirstBlog.blog.views.home' 2. When you change the settings.py file to point django to the app you have installed you need to put in 'blog' not 'FirstBlog.blog'."

Wow, great tutorial. Why would someone ever give you a thumb down for it? I find your instructions very useful!

[Ohhimark]

Thank you so much, I can't thank you enough.
Had little issues cause I was using Django 1.9
But no biggie.... Thanks a lot.

[shamabbas]

Bunch of thanks! this series really helped me to understand basic python and django structure.

[shubham]

This is just a magic ! Thank you very much! Great for a beginner like me!

[OfficialJakeCross]

Hey, thanks so much for this video. It taught me pretty much everything, aside from a few mishaps due to me using updated versions of things. But all in all, it was great. Thanks again.

Very useful and powerful video for python beginners.
Thanks very much for posting this!

[andrecardoso]

I'm coding for 3 years now... I can do alot stuff on java, c++, php so on... but only I start get some interest on Python. This video made love the language. Thank you so much, I'm ready to do some real fucking shit :D

Edit: ... made me love the language AND learning it vey well!

[ThePyrocorp]

Don't get what you saying. I'm a beginner and I understood perfectly. Also that's the best Django video tutorial around. WORKED FOR ME!!!

[renegaed]

I agree this tutorial is a little difficult for beginners but eventually as u get more familiar with development u will gravitate towards using a package manager such as homebrew over installation packages. they are far superior and give you much more flexibility.

[marcingaska]

It's good to know Symfony, Yaml and SQL because i don't need to watch previous episodes to understand that :)
Everything these is so similar to each selves, espacially to Symfony.
