🚀 Django Learning Journey – Day 13
Today I truly realized how powerful Bootstrap is!
For someone like me who isn’t naturally inclined toward UI/UX or frontend design — Bootstrap feels like magic.
A total time saver.
🎨 Making My App Prettier
I updated my home.html with:
✔️ Different button colors for completed tasks
❗ “Danger” red button for incomplete tasks
🗑️ A neat “Delete” button
🎨 A fresh, minimal layout
It’s not an award-winning UI 😄
But for my first project… I actually love how decent it looks now.
And honestly — I have gained massive respect for frontend developers and UI/UX designers.
Making things look good is a whole different skill set!
⚙️ Django Learning So Far
It’s been 13 days…
From starting a Django project → building CRUD → forms → messages → templates → static files → Git…
Just one step remains:
Deployment.
This one intimidates me a bit — where to start, which free tier to use, what all configs are needed…
But I’m excited to learn this next.
🔐 What’s Next?
This To-Do app doesn’t use complex DB logic or authentication.
So I’m planning to build a similar project, but:
🔑 With proper authentication
👥 User-specific data
🛠️ Some real-world logic
🧩 Maybe a dashboard
Most tutorials stop after CRUD + basic auth…
But I want to actually understand how to use Django to its full potential.
If you’re experienced with Django —
👉 What should I learn next to really level up?
🤔 Curious Question
When you finished your very first Django project:
What were you thinking right before deployment?
What nightmares did you face?
And what was your reaction when you finally saw your app LIVE on the internet?
I’d really love to hear your stories!
🙏 Thanks for reading
This journey is getting more exciting every day — and your support keeps me going.
