• To learn Django and React

• some documentation :

  • https://www.django-rest-framework.org/
  • https://www.valentinog.com/blog/drf/#Django_REST_with_React_Django_and_React_together
  • http://v1k45.com/blog/modern-django-part-1-setting-up-django-and-react/

• Make sure, you have Python3 install

• Install pipenv : pip install pipenv

• pipenv shell to open a virtual environment for our project

• Install some packages pipenv install django djangorestframework django-rest-knox

• Create a django project django-admin startproject leadmanager

• Create an app python manage.py startapp leads

• Add the name of the app in the settings file of our project

• Go to the leads folder, then the models.py file and create a model name Lead

• Once created go to the terminal and execute python manage.py makemigrations leads then python manage.py migrate

• Let s now go to the API : REST FRAMEWORK

• First we create a serializer.py file in the leads folder. It is a file that will allows complex data such as queryset and models instances to be converted to Python data type that can be easily rendered to JSON, XML AND OTHER ....

• Then we must create api.py file that use viewset that allows us to create a full crud api (create read update and delete) without having to specify explicit methods for the functionality. It is kind like how ruby works
