Understand Django My mega article series to help you learn Django Building SaaS on YouTube Chat live on Wednesdays @ 9pm ET Videos on YouTube All sorts of Python and Django content for viewing #Django #SaaS #Python User Requests - Building SaaS with Python and Django #134 In this episode, we took a break between big projects and worked on some smaller usability features requested by users of the app. #Django #SaaS #Python S3 FileField - Building SaaS with Python and Django #133 In this episode, we built the UI to allow users to request an end-of-year PDF bundle. Then we hooked the model up to S3 via django-storages and tested everything out. #Python #Data #Great Expectations #Quality Great Expectations Data Quality Testing Great Expectations is a shared, open standard for data quality. It helps data teams eliminate pipeline debt, through data testing, documentation, and profiling I make a lot of Django content for the community. Please support me on Patreon! #Python #Django #SaaS PDF Courses Report - Building SaaS with Python and Django #132 In this episode, we added a final PDF report to the PDF bundle. This report was different than the other because there wasn’t a pre-existing HTML report to mimic. I built a report that shows all the completed course tasks for each student. #SaaS #Python #Django PDF Attendance Report - Building SaaS with Python and Django #131 In this episode, we added a third PDF report to the PDF bundle. The patterns from previous reports made this one go faster, but I hit some small snags with the output of the PDF being crushed together. #Lua #HTTP #Parser Lua Log #9: HTTP Parser In the last entry, I concluded that I wanted to build my own HTTP parser. This post looks at how I did the parser building and what’s next for my Lua web framework. #SaaS #Python PDF Progress Report - Building SaaS with Python and Django #130 In this episode, we added the next report to the PDF bundle. In the process of adding this report, I cleaned up some of the PDF generation code and refactored to some common patterns. Want to chat about Python, Django, or building on the web? Join the Building SaaS Discord and say “Hello!” #Lua #HTTP #Parser Lua Log #8: HTTP Parsing My next challenge in my Lua project is to parse incoming network data into HTTP requests that an application can process. In this entry, I explore the options available to me and why I am making the choice to build my own HTTP parser. #Python #Django #security Security And Django You want to protect your users' privacy, right? The goal is noble and users demand it, but how do you do it? In this Understand Django article, we’ll look at some areas that improve the security of your application. #Lua #Routing Lua Log #7: Routing Requests Do you know the feeling when a project starts coming together and things seem exciting and electric? I had some of that feeling this week as I figured out how to route requests in my web framework. #Django #SaaS #Python PDF Debugging - Building SaaS with Python and Django #129 In this episode, I debugged the static file handling that my homeschool application is using when it generates PDF reports. #Lua #ASGI #Atlas Lua Log #6: LASGI - ASGI in Lua In my limited time this week, I built out the interface between the web server and my application. I’m leaning heavily on work done in Python by implementing ASGI in Lua. #Python #Django #SaaS Form Features and CSS - Building SaaS with Python and Django #128 In this episode, we worked on a user requested feature that improves a workflow for task management in the homeschool app. After completing the feature, I returned to the PDF bundle project to add CSS styling to the PDF report. #twitch #Python #Django #SaaS Upgrade to Tailwind CSS v3 - Building SaaS with Python and Django #127 In this episode, I upgraded my app to switch from Tailwind CSS v2 to v3. We worked through the migration guide to make all the needed changes to work with v3. Then I upgraded my development tools to make Tailwind updates as I develop my templates. #Callbacks #Coroutines #Atlas Lua Log #5: Callbacks to Coroutines I’ve been working on how to avoid callbacks in my web framework. My goal with Atlas is to produce interfaces that look like synchronous calls, but utilize cooperative scheduling (coroutines) under the hood to handle work asynchronously. #Python #Django #settings Episode 16 - Setting Your Sites On this episode, we look at how to manage settings on your Django site. What are the common techniques to make this easier to handle? Let’s find out! #Packaging #Atlas Lua Log #4: Build a (Terrible) Package Another week, another bit of Lua progress. This week, I got into building a Lua package. Let’s cover some things that I learned. #twitch #Python #Django #SaaS Admin Interface For PDFs - Building SaaS with Python and Django #126 In this episode, I need tools to inspect some PDF reports that I’m building that customers of my homeschool app will use at the end of the school year. I build the admin tools that allow me to see these PDFs quickly. Page 1 of 11 Previous Articles → © 2008–2022 Matt Layman About Latest Articles Categories Tags
