Django Framework
Overview
Master Django, the high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. Learn to build secure, scalable web applications with Django's batteries-included approach.
Learning Objectives
- Build full-stack web applications using Django MVC pattern
- Design and implement database models with Django ORM
- Implement user authentication and authorization
- Create RESTful APIs with Django REST Framework
- Deploy Django applications to production
Core Topics
1. Django Basics & Project Structure
- Django project setup and configuration
- Understanding MVT (Model-View-Template) pattern
- URL routing and views
- Django settings and environment variables
- Static files and media handling
Code Example:
# myapp/views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import JsonResponse
from .models import Product
def product_list(request):
products = Product.objects.all()
return render(request, 'products/list.html', {'products': products})
def product_api(request):
products = Product.objects.values('id', 'name', 'price')
return JsonResponse(list(products), safe=False)
2. Django ORM & Database Models
- Model definition and field types
- Relationships (ForeignKey, ManyToMany, OneToOne)
- QuerySets and database queries
- Migrations and schema management
- Database optimization (select_related, prefetch_related)
Code Example:
# models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class Category(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
slug = models.SlugField(unique=True)
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
class Meta:
verbose_name_plural = "Categories"
def __str__(self):
return self.name
class Product(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
description = models.TextField()
price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=2)
category = models.ForeignKey(Category, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
created_by = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True)
is_active = models.BooleanField(default=True)
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.name
# Efficient querying
products = Product.objects.select_related('category', 'created_by').filter(is_active=True)
3. Authentication & Authorization
- User registration and login
- Password management
- Session management
- Permissions and groups
- Custom user models
- Social authentication
Code Example:
# views.py
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login, logout
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required, permission_required
from django.shortcuts import redirect, render
def login_view(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
username = request.POST['username']
password = request.POST['password']
user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password)
if user is not None:
login(request, user)
return redirect('dashboard')
return render(request, 'login.html')
@login_required
def dashboard(request):
return render(request, 'dashboard.html')
@permission_required('products.add_product')
def add_product(request):
# Only users with 'add_product' permission can access
return render(request, 'products/add.html')
4. Django REST Framework
- Serializers and validation
- ViewSets and routers
- Authentication (JWT, Token)
- Permissions and throttling
- Pagination and filtering
Code Example:
# serializers.py
from rest_framework import serializers
from .models import Product, Category
class CategorySerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = Category
fields = ['id', 'name', 'slug']
class ProductSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
category = CategorySerializer(read_only=True)
category_id = serializers.IntegerField(write_only=True)
class Meta:
model = Product
fields = ['id', 'name', 'description', 'price', 'category', 'category_id', 'created_at']
# views.py
from rest_framework import viewsets
from rest_framework.permissions import IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly
class ProductViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = Product.objects.all()
serializer_class = ProductSerializer
permission_classes = [IsAuthenticatedOrReadOnly]
def get_queryset(self):
queryset = super().get_queryset()
category = self.request.query_params.get('category')
if category:
queryset = queryset.filter(category__slug=category)
return queryset

Popular backend & apis skills
find-skills
vercel-labs/skills
Helps users discover and install agent skills when they ask questions like "how do I do X", "find a skill for X", "is there a skill that can...", or express interest in extending capabilities. This skill should be used when the user is looking for functionality that might exist as an installable skill.
entra-app-registration
microsoft/azure-skills
Guides Microsoft Entra ID app registration, OAuth 2.0 authentication, and MSAL integration. USE FOR: create app registration, register Azure AD app, configure OAuth, set up authentication, add API permissions, generate service principal, MSAL example, console app auth, Entra ID setup, Azure AD authentication. DO NOT USE FOR: Key Vault secrets (use azure-keyvault-expiration-audit), general Azure resource security guidance.
google-agents-cli-adk-code
google/agents-cli
This skill should be used when the user wants to "write agent code", "build an agent with ADK", "add a tool", "create a callback", "define an agent", "use state management" — in a project that needs ADK (Agent Development Kit) API patterns and code examples. It provides a quick reference for agent types, tool definitions, orchestration patterns, callbacks, state management, the graph Workflow API, and reference recipes to study. Do NOT use for scaffolding (use google-agents-cli-scaffold) or deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy).
embedded-captions
heygen-com/hyperframes
Add captions or subtitles to an existing single-subject talking-head video without editing the footage. Use for plain verbatim captions, cinematic captions embedded behind the subject, VFX captions, “炸/特效/酷炫字幕,” or a named identity from the 35-style catalog. Route by visual identity, not by backend engine. The quiet anchor rail is the default; embed every word only when the user explicitly wants a fully cinematic treatment. The workflow runs locally end to end, including transcription and subject matting; split multi-shot footage before applying it.
entra-agent-id
microsoft/azure-skills
Provision Microsoft Entra Agent Identity Blueprints, BlueprintPrincipals, and per-instance Agent Identities via Microsoft Graph, and configure OAuth 2.0 token exchange (fmipath, OBO, cross-tenant) including the Microsoft Entra SDK for AgentID sidecar. USE FOR: Agent Identity Blueprint, BlueprintPrincipal, agent OAuth, fmipath token exchange, agent OBO, Workload Identity Federation for agents, polyglot agent auth, Microsoft.Identity.Web.AgentIdentities. DO NOT USE FOR: standard Entra app registration (use entra-app-registration), Microsoft Foundry agent authoring (use microsoft-foundry).
