Donpre:

You're one of the few. I started with FBVs so it feels more natural.
I'm warming up to class based views though as FBVs in DRF na stress

What problems do you have with user authentication?

Too many options to it which makes it very confusing at times.

Wow, interesting there is a django thread on NL.

Anyways anyone in for some exploration with Django? More of a contribution to a project I'm building. Comes with a lot of technologies

NL bot is actually messing with my ass. Anyways its a forum project. A much more robust forum.

I just took down a live host of the forum online due to financial issue of cloud hosting.. Can't be hosted on heroku because it grew big.

The link is on my signature to avoid NL bot from hitting me again. Most particularly "SLEEKFORUM"

use free tier of AWS Ec2 that where I deployed mine africonn

Bigger than what freetier on AWS will run without been charged along the way

Not users (zero users to be precise). But some technology it was running on and libraries where memory and resource intensive.

Even on Linode Cloud, it required 2gb of RAM smoothly without load time issue. Though it was two Django projects running simultaneously (main domain and subdomain)

shit, optimize the app then, why run two Django apps on a machine I am planning on running celery but I feared something similar might happen

LoL I even optimised by ensuring I didn't use Python base image. Rather I used Archlinux

Anyways, reason for running two Django projects on same host is issue of DOMAIN NAME.
Cos I don't wanna buy another domain.

My portfolio runs on the subdomain.

Taofeekdboy, did you send a PM to me?

ok, u could use something like netlify for the portfolio site since it get lesser traffic

Haven't used it before. I pray I don't face same issue I battled with using Heroku

Okk, just make sure you make it online ASAP

React is awesome and easy to setup, just make sure your javascript knowledge is solid so that you won't encounter difficulties along the way.

On Heroku, you can still host your app there, the only problem is the cost of hosting on Heroku, it is not cheap. You can also look at digitalOcean as well cos their price is relatively cheaper than Heroku.

TheCarpenter:

yes, I sent you a PM

Didn't get any meaningful message from the text o-o. Just some Nairaland jargon sha

Maybe you should write to adepeter26 at Gmail dot com

I have heroku premium service for one year. But I choose not to because of the experience I faced using their free tier service.

As for the usage of DIGITALOCEAN, I used Linode instead but took it down few days back.

Thanks. If you're good at working with Django, I could feel motivated to spin it up again. At the moment, vibes lost continuing the project but when I see people like you trying to do one or two things, will be encouraged to continue irrespective of the cloud charges.

things like this happens all the time, if not we would have more successful companies, but we just won't relent, because everything we do is for others good not just for our sake. I think we should link up

Nice thread I intend learning Flask though. I heard it's more flexible and suitable for machine learning web apps.

I read this too online (the machine learning advantage). Anyways as for flexibility, I think Django is much flexible (maybe cos I'm a django fan).

The only time I played with flask was when I started python anew.

Which is simpler between Flask and Django?

Taofeekdboy:
Here comes another project during this lock down.
A combination of React and Django..
It is about a musical app where you stream and add songs via album.
Kindly check it out and leave your comments. Thanks...

Mehn, as for me, i would say "Django"

You would mostly learn either "DJANGO RESTFRAMEWORK" or "GRAPHQL" to be able to easily hook Django and react/vue/Angular (and other js Frontend library/framework) together
