Re: Need Django Help Again.

[Bill Freeman]

Unless it has changed, the tutorial at docs.djangoproject.com shows
creation of an app, use of templates, forms, etc.  All the building blocks
for the back end (which is what django is).  Those are the skills that have
been the base of several sites that I've built.  If your site wants to have
other features, like text search, or social auth, or blogs, or shopping
carts, there are add on apps for those things that you can find with
google, and which typically have reasonable example usage in their
documentation.  (That's not to say that you won't choose home grown over
some of them, if you needs are a bit different.)

The real trick is knowing what you want to do.  A toy site that you create
as a "learning exercise" is probably going to feel like a toy (like those
things they have you write in a collage level CS class).  If you have
something that you want to put before the world, you will figure out how to
make it feel sharper.  Having a real project in mind is, as always, the
hard part.

And, as mentioned, django is just the server side.  You need to understand
HTML, CSS, and, probably JavaScript and some of its frameworks, like jQuery
or D3.  Unless your project is non-browser, in which case you need to
understand HTTP anyway, and maybe Rest, and probably still HTML (since
that's what the request chain expects.

So, I'd suggest finishing the official tutorial, if you haven't already.
Then look at some add-ons like a blog, a CMS, or a shopping cart, mostly to
see how to add a third party app and configure it.  Then perhaps you'll
have though of something that you want to build for yourself.

[Steve Burrus]

say do yoiu know of a handy series of tutorials I can use to actually do
something in Django beyond merely connecting to the server and maybe
configuring the admin? I am getting tired of just connecting to the server
and then "calling it a day" if you know what I mean.

That's actually a virtualenv mistake, rather than a django mistake.
Whenever things don't behave in a VE try "pip freeze" to see if things are
as you expect.

I presume that you have actually checked for a django-admin.py file in the

Re: Need Django Help Again.

[Bill Freeman]

Try no space between ".\Scripts\" and "django-admin.py"

You could also try forward slashes on the django-admin.py line (I think
that you need the back slashes on the activate line).

And I don't think that you need the ".\" on the django-admin.py line.

And, if that activate is activating a virtualenv (as the "(burrus)" might
seem to imply), then you might be able to just do:

python django-admin.py startproject me

(but I'm not that familiar with virtualenv on Windows.  On *nix it's all
about path modification, so the django-admin.py might just be found.)

Also worth trying is:

   django-admin.py startproject me

Perhaps someone who actually uses Windows for django development could
chime in?

You seem to have a space after the “\Scripts\”.
