While working with Django you use a lot of commands. I decided to create a list of commands for myself to make my development a little faster.
Quick links to tutorials:
- 1 – Working with models
- 2 – Creating admin panel
- 3 – Creating views and using templates
- 4 – Creating forms
- 5 – Testing
- 6 – Customizing apps look and feel
- Creating reusable apps
