Hi Jim, I would really recommend looking at https://ccbv.co.uk/projects/Django/1.9/
There are diagrams to show the hierarchy of inheritance and mixins, plus all the properties and methods are there to see and explore. The place to start is the dispatch method, as_view is called first but you can backtrack to that later. Have a look, you'll see dispatch gets the request's method tries to call a method with that name if it is a valid HTTP method and returns a HTTP 405 if either the method is not defined.
