FastAPI with Docker Compose: Streamlining Development and Deployment In the ever-evolving landscape of web development, building and deploying applications efficiently is crucial. FastAPI, with its speed and modern Python features, has gained immense popularity. However, managing the dependencies, configurations, and deployment of a FastAPI application can quickly become complex. This is where Docker Compose comes in. Docker Compose simplifies the process by allowing you to define and run multi-container Docker applications....

We just shipped something I've been wanting to build for a long time. 🚀 Introducing the Dynamic Duniya Code Playground — run Python, SQL, JavaScript, PHP, Java, C++, Go and 12 languages directly in your browser. No login. No install. No setup. Just open and code. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁: → Python runs via WebAssembly (Pyodide) — NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib included → SQL has a real database with sample tables — practice JOINs instantly → PHP runs in your browser with no server (php-wasm) → Node.js runs sandboxed — no server needed → Java, C++, Go run on real compilers 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁: We added Coding Challenges with hidden test cases, instant XP, and a Leaderboard — so now there's a reason to come back every day. We built this because the #1 complaint from our learners was: "I understand the tutorial but I can't practice without setting up a whole environment." That problem is now gone.

Mastering Django & `django-admin-charts`: Data Visualization In the world of web development, data is king. Being able to effectively visualize that data can transform raw numbers into actionable insights. Django, a powerful Python web framework, provides a robust foundation for building web applications. However, the standard Django admin interface, while functional, lacks built-in data visualization capabilities. This is where `django-admin-charts` comes in. This package seamlessly integrates with the Django admin, allowing you to create beautiful, interactive charts directly from your model data....

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been exploring Python backend development, especially Django and FastAPI. Today I learned some key differences between them. Django vs FastAPI 🔹 Django A full-stack web framework Comes with built-in features like ORM, authentication, admin panel Best for large applications and rapid development Uses synchronous programming (WSGI) by default Slightly heavier but very structured 🔹 FastAPI A modern, high-performance API framework Designed mainly for building APIs Uses asynchronous programming (ASGI) Automatic interactive API docs (Swagger & ReDoc) Very fast and lightweight 💡 My takeaway: Django is great when you want a complete web framework, while FastAPI is perfect when you need high-performance APIs or microservices. #Python #Django #FastAPI #BackendDevelopment #WebDevelopment #LearningInPublic

Most API tools implement scripting as a thin JavaScript layer. And yes, this can be ok for small tests, but it quickly breaks down when you start working with real, multi-step systems. In Voiden, we designed scripting as a true runtime layer: - It supports multiple languages, so you can use the one that fits your stack. - It runs on real interpreters, not a limited sandbox. - You can import packages and reuse your existing logic. - Workflows are stateful, letting you chain requests and maintain context across them. Already works with JavaScript and Python. Tomorrow, more languages will follow. The result: orchestration-level automation right inside your API client. Are you aware of another API tool that goes this far today? Download here: https://voiden.md/download GitHub: https://lnkd.in/d4rG6PcU

Mastering Django & `django-rest-framework-simplejwt`: API Authentication In the world of web development, securing your APIs is paramount. Without proper authentication, your valuable data and application logic are vulnerable to unauthorized access. Django, a powerful Python web framework, provides a robust foundation for building web applications, but it doesn't inherently offer a streamlined solution for API authentication. This is where `django-rest-framework-simplejwt` comes in. This package provides a simple and effective way to implement JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication for your Django REST Framework (DRF) APIs....

How Django Middleware Actually Works ? If you're working with Django, you've probably heard about middleware — but what does it really do? Think of middleware as a layer between request and response. 👉 When a request comes in: It passes through multiple middleware layers before reaching your view. 👉 When a response goes out: It travels back through those same layers in reverse order. Flow: Request → Middleware 1 → Middleware 2 → View → Middleware 2 → Middleware 1 → Response What can Middleware do? ✔ Authentication (check user login) ✔ Logging (track requests & responses) ✔ Security (CSRF, headers) ✔ Modify request/response ✔ Performance tracking Simple Example: class SimpleMiddleware: def __init__(self, get_response): self.get_response = get_response def __call__(self, request): print("Before View") response = self.get_response(request) print("After View") return response Why it matters? Middleware gives you central control over how requests and responses behave — without touching every view. Pro Tip: Order matters in "MIDDLEWARE" settings. The request goes top → bottom, and response comes bottom → top. #Django #Python #WebDevelopment #Backend #SoftwareEngineering #LearnPython

Understanding the structure of the Django Framework 🐍 From manage.py to settings.py, URLs to Views, Models to Templates — Django follows a powerful MVT (Model-View-Template) architecture that makes web development structured and scalable.

Today I spent some time learning about authentication in Django REST Framework. I explored Basic Authentication, Session Authentication, and JWT authentication using Simple JWT. It helped me understand how APIs verify users and manage secure access to endpoints. To reinforce the concepts, I implemented these authentication methods in a small DRF project and pushed the code to GitHub. You can check the implementation here: https://lnkd.in/dnj-STMD I also learned about token-based authentication, where a token is generated and used to authenticate API requests. There are several ways tokens can be generated, such as: Using Django Admin Panel Using python manage.py Command By exposing api endpints Signals Code for these implementations is available in the same repository int the following project: https://lnkd.in/dcV4pdxp
