Hello and Welcome! 👋

Embark on a journey to create a robust, production-ready Django REST API in this comprehensive course. You'll learn to containerize your application with Docker, manage asynchronous tasks using Celery and Redis, and orchestrate your deployment with the help of tools like Nginx, Nginx Proxy Manager, Portainer, and more.

Who is this course for? 🏫

This course is crafted for intermediate-level web developers who have at least 6 months of experience under their belt. If you're a seasoned developer with more experience, you'll find the content here to be both challenging and rewarding. Prior knowledge of the following concepts is recommended:

• Docker: Master running multiple containers and creating scalable applications.
• Secure Django REST API: Learn to secure your APIs using HTTPS and SSL certificates from Letsencrypt.
• REST APIs with Django: Understand the principles of building RESTful services with Django and Django Rest Framework.
• Class Based Views (CBVs): Use CBVs to create well-organized code for your API endpoints.
• Shell Scripting: Write effective shell scripts to automate tasks and manage your deployment.
• Asynchronous Tasks with Celery & Redis: Implement asynchronous processing in your application for better performance and scalability.
• Monitoring Async Tasks with Flower: Keep an eye on the health of your background task workers.
• API Testing with Pytest: Master testing your API endpoints using factories, fixtures, and pytest-django.
• Token-Based Authentication: Implement secure user authentication mechanisms.
• Email Handling: Configure email handling for development (with Mailhog) and production (with Mailgun).
• Python Test Coverage: Write tests that matter with coverage tools to ensure your codebase is robust.
• Serving Static & Media Files: Serve static and media files efficiently with Nginx and whitenoise.
• Makefiles & Docker: Learn how makefiles can enhance your workflow when using Docker.

What's in it for you? 🌟

By the end of this course, you will have a fully functional Django REST API up and running, served by NGINX on a custom domain name, and secured with HTTPS. You'll understand how to manage deployment at scale using Docker and related tools, ensuring your application is ready for production.

The skills you gain from this course are not just limited to building APIs; they are applicable across a wide range of projects and can be scaled to suit even larger applications in the future.
