Building Web Applications in Django

Michigan moves into the application structure behind a working Django site. Data models, views and templates develop alongside object-oriented Python and forms. The estimated thirteen-and-a-half hours suit learners ready to connect individual framework components into a small application.

What you will learn

• Represent application data with a Django model.
• Connect view behavior to templates and model queries.
• Build forms and explain how submitted values reach the application.

Who this suits

Learners following a Django foundation who need practice connecting data, requests and rendered pages.

Before you enroll

The provider classifies this as intermediate. If installation, HTTP or basic Python are new, start with the earlier web-technology course in Michigan’s sequence.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Tool subscriptions, model API usage and cloud services may cost extra.

Put it into practice

Build a small reading-list application. Trace one create operation through its form, view, model and response, then test a missing required value.
