Description:
This course is about setting up your development environment with production in mind, where we serve a Django website/application through Apache Web Server, through the ultra fast WSGI interface while using a robust DBMS like MariaDB as our database backend. You will learn about not only the configuration & integration of all these different software for your project, but also the rationale behind some of the big decisions along the way. Most courses that you will find on the internet only show you how to install Django inside a python virtual environment, but they don’t teach you how to serve your Django Application using Apache Web Server. Many other courses, show you how to install it on Nginx & Gunicorn stack. And also there is nearly no course that tells you how to install mod_wsgi or how to properly configure it. Worry not, that is why I created this course, to Teach you all of that, in a quick & easy manner. Please Note that both Django 4 & 5 are supported, so it doesn’t matter which one your are using. The configurations are same for both. After taking this course, you would be able to not only deploy a Django website or application, but you can even serve something based on Flask, or other frameworks by applying the underlying concepts shown in this course. Moreover, you will also understand how to setup database & connect them to Django. So even though we cover only MariaDB which is fork of MySQL, you can apply the knowledge taught to use the other big alternative DBMS i.e., PostgreSQLTowards the end, we will make the final configuration & adjustments, and deploy our Django Application on Apache, such that it is ready to be served publicly.

Who this course is for:
This course is for those who want to learn how to deploy Django Application on an Apache Webserver
