1:32 - As for the secret key, also recommended to check the module 'decouple'. It does the same thing but in more elegant way.

Fucking amazing how quickly and concisely you could share all this information. And with very clear pronunciation too! Coming here in the future for any other django information I need.

Thank you so much for helping me figure this out. There were quite a number of settings I skipped on my production site settings.py file. Thanks once again.

Have you made a video about deploying a Django site to a PaaS?? I feel IaaS is too hard and complicated for beginners like me. I don't feel i need all that control and setup a full Linux server from scratch for a simple portfolio website.

[johnsolly]

Is it best practice to use the same database for development and production?

[nitensapkota]

Subscribed 🙌 can please make a video on how to access static files if you're hosting static files in digital ocean spaces ...i have hosted my static files in digital ocean spaces and I am not able to change anything on those files ..i have search online about it but they says AWS S3 is not mutable i have to download the files and edit the hosted file and then re-upload it which is not convenient ..
