Django Chunked Upload Improves Performance and Reliability

Spent the last few days messing around with Django to build a simple URL shortener. Wanted to get more comfortable with the ORM and custom auth, so I focused mostly on the backend logic rather than the UI. Implemented Base62 encoding for the short keys, a basic user system so people can actually manage their own links, and some simple click tracking to see if the redirects are actually working. It was a good exercise in mapping database relationships and handling redirects properly. #Python #Django #WebDev #Backend #CodingPractice

At first glance it looks like Python and HTML had a baby, but under the hood it’s actually a new language with its own lexer, tokens, compiler, and runtime. The goal is to make HTML more modular and expressive while keeping everything developers love about Django’s server-rendered architecture. Djule sits directly on top of Django and explores a different direction for building UI: Python-driven components, composable HTML, and a simpler developer experience without forcing heavy frontend frameworks.

💡 In today’s lab, I had the opportunity to build a Weather Web Application using Django and API integration. This project gave me practical insights into: Understanding the Django project structure Integrating APIs with Python to fetch real-time data Displaying live weather information on a web interface Working hands-on like this made it much clearer how backend logic connects with the frontend, and I’m excited to keep exploring and building real-world applications! 🚀 #Django #Python #API #WebDevelopment #StudentProject

Just shipped FastReact — a Python library that unifies FastAPI + React into one stack 🐍⚛️ 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀: Running FastAPI + React always meant two servers, manual CORS config, and cryptic JSON errors when something breaks. FastReact eliminates all of that. 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀: ⚡ One CLI command starts everything — fastreact dev main:app --reload 🔴 Python tracebacks render as browser overlays (like React's own error screen) 🔒 Route protection built in — React pages are browser-only, API tools get 405 📡 --call flag shows every live request colored by method and status 🐍 Works with both FastAPI and Flask 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹: pip install fastreact 𝗩𝟬.𝟮.𝟬 𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱𝗺𝗮𝗽 has something groundbreaking for local dev — stay tuned 👀 Would love feedback from anyone building fullstack Python apps! 🔗 PyPI: pypi.org/project/fastreact 🔗 GitHub: https://lnkd.in/gBnGbB6t #Python #FastAPI #React #OpenSource #WebDevelopment #PyPI #Flask #Fullstack #Programming

Most Django tutorials teach you how to build features. Very few teach you how to structure a real production project. After working on multiple Django systems, I realized that bad project structure becomes technical debt very quickly. So I wrote a complete guide on: • Production Django architecture • Service layer pattern • Selectors for queries • Environment-based settings • Scalable app structure If you're building serious Django applications, this can save you months of refactoring later.

#StopUsing print() in Production – Start Using Logging in Django.... When I first started with Django, I used print() everywhere. But sometime its very hard to find the error even after using print() so i went in research for final solution and i figure out logger which is saviour for me. In real applications, especially in production, print() is useless. You need proper logging. Here’s why logging in Django actually matters: ✅ Track errors without crashing the app ✅ Monitor user activity and system behavior ✅ Debug production issues without SSH panic ✅ Maintain clean and structured logs Django comes with Python’s built-in logging module — you just need to configure it properly. #django #logger #python #Developer #codedaily

The hardest part of building an open source framework isn't shipping v1. It's what happens the week after. I released FluidKit last week. A bridge between Python and SvelteKit that lets you write backend functions in Python and use them as native SvelteKit remote functions. 7 days later, I found two problems I couldn't ignore. The first was subtle. Edit a decorated function fast enough, or swap its decorator type mid-development, and the route would stick in FastAPI permanently. Ghost endpoints. Invisible unless you checked /docs. The root cause took hours to trace. The hot reload system assumed cleanup would always happen in order. But the reload engine sometimes fires delete before the proxy even attaches. The cleanup path never runs. The route lives forever. The fix: a reconciliation pass after every reload. Compare what the registry thinks exists against what the module actually exports. Mismatches get cleaned up immediately. The second problem was a security gap. FluidKit generates /remote/* endpoints meant only for SvelteKit's server. But anyone who knew the port could call them directly. Now every request carries an HMAC-signed timestamp. No valid signature, no access. Building a framework means your bugs become everyone's bugs. That's why I shipped both fixes within a week. FluidKit v1.3.0 is live. pip install --upgrade fluidkit If you're using FluidKit and hit something weird, open an issue: https://lnkd.in/g3zdvcYJ Docs and source: https://fluidkit.github.io If you're building fullstack apps with Python, I'd love your feedback. And if you've shipped something open source and know that post-launch anxiety, I get it now. #Python #SvelteKit #FastAPI #OpenSource #WebDevelopment #FullStack #Pydantic #BuildInPublic

I built my own (best and last) static site generator years ago. - A single ~200 lines Python file - 2 client-side deps: pico.css & highlight.js - Pages written in HTML (not MD) - Front matter uses TOML - It has templates, includes, blog support - Build and publish to Github pages on push
