Hey guys!
It’s me again, in case you missed the post that I put out last week, My name is Jawdat.
I’m a Python developer, who worked previously on a couple of games in Godot engine which uses GDscript; a language that is pretty similar to python.
I started my journey in web development not so long ago, with "Django for Beginners: Build Websites with Python and Django" by William S. Vincent.
Last week I talked about starting my first relatively-complicated web app.
I want this project to turn out to be simple on the outside but to also have somewhat of a depth on the inside. First thing I started with was designing my custom model and architecting my project and where I want to store my templates, static files, how I will connect my apps inside of my project and If which apps should be connected and intersect.
Although many people consider reddit usage unprofessional, but, regardless of what is popular. I’m here to encourage any person who is struggling to connect with web development community
Or has any questions that their answers are not as clear in the documentations nor answered on stack overflow/GitHub to reach out to the r/Django community. People there are just so supportive and kind with the right questions and are willing to provide many resources that will help you build your own unique projects; because if you’re just cloning a certain service out there your questions will probably be answered on the previously mentioned platforms.
(my last advice is for people who are new to web/app/game/development in general)
Tasks achieved:
Custom User Model extending AbstractUser.
Custom Blog-Post Model with many additional properties.
The ability to Create/Read/Update/Delete posts in a manner that suits the website’s service.
Custom Friend-Request which allows mutual posting and that updates the User interfaces of the users per phase.
Post-Control system that depends on Real-Time calculations to work.
Many tasks are yet to be achieved, but I can consider myself performing pretty well considering that I only reached out to people, Stack overflow and GitHub and didn’t copy any tutorials or videos on YouTube.
I also started to post weekly on Dev , I put my profile down in the pictures. If you wanted to follow me there, I will start to post small bits there unlike my LinkedIn.
