Leveling Up with Django: Handling Models, Views and Forms


On the 19th of October Python Kumasi organized the monthly meetup for October.The meetup was held at Computer Lab, KsTU. The event was a two part series on Django models, forms and views. This series was designed for those who had a bit of familiarity with Django basics and were eager to complete their understanding.
The event began at 9:30am with an introduction and icebreaker session by the Python Kumasi Lead Allen Eben Tetteh which set a friendly and welcoming environment. He welcomed everyone and encouraged the attendees to network among themselves.
Forms: We picked up where we left off, further discussing form validation and handling more complex user inputs.
Models: Attendees got a deeper understanding of Django models, including relationships and database management best practices.
Views: Since we didn’t finish views in the last session, we focus on creating dynamic views and efficiently connecting them with models and templates.
After the tutorials , we had lunch and snacks whiles talking about general python topics. A discussion with the atttendees was had on what to project to work on to solidify their understanding of Django and it was decided the artendees would work on a peer review system in the upcoming months.
Conclusion
