Welcome to the API Development with Django REST Framework course.
If you’re a beginner looking to learn the fundamentals of Django REST Framework, you’re in the right place.
Whether you’ve been working with Django for a while or you're completely new, this course is designed to help you build strong foundations in API development.
I’ll walk you through everything step by step, from setting up your environment to creating real-world APIs that you can use in your own projects.
Just a quick note: This course is a part of my Full Stack Machine Learning series, where you’ll eventually integrate React and machine learning models for full-stack development. But, for now, we’ll focus on the API side of things to get you comfortable with the Django REST Framework.
So, We’ll cover everything from:
Setting up Django,
Building RESTful APIs,
Implementing serializers,
Function-based views
Class based views
Mixins
Generics
Viewsets
Handling CRUD operations with models
And so much more...
