I finally wrote and deployed my first #django app this week.
I have played with #rails and #phoenix for the past few decades, but I haven’t dug hard into django as every app i have worked on or overseen would not benefit much from the admin interface.
I am the only one working on this app, and it's for me only, and I didn't care if the admin interface adhered to a very specific design spec. In fact, i am the only one wjho will probably ever see the admin interface.
More attached…
every other framework i have used had the concept of "environments" where you could have several configurations to choose from.
It's not hard to overcome. you can maintain a local .env file to set up the app in dev mode locally. but i feel like it would lbe clearer with multiple settings files.
I ended up deploying to @digitalocean #AppPlatform . I didn't shop around for options at all.
@digitalocean has a great document on how to deploy, and it works.
