To-Do Listy!

A simple to-do list application made with Python-Django and Bootstrap4 (and a wee-bit of JS and jQuery).

Installation

To use this app in your machine, do the following:

• Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/syed-saif/to-do-listy.git

• Highly recommend: use a virtual environment, to keep this repo's installations separate. Virtualenvwrapper is a good wrapper for this. Install a venv for python 3.7 or above:

mkvirtualenv -p /path/to/python<=3.7 todo

• After setting up the virtualenv, cd to the directory where you cloned this repo. Then do:

pip install -r requirements.txt

• Then run the Django dev server, from the root directory of this repo:

python3 manage.py runserver

• Now the app should be accessible through the localhost

P.S

This was my first Django app (:P). This project was done in 2 days or so, as I quickly wanted to go through all that Django has to offer. And I have to admit, using Django saved a ton of time, as it already had the common bells and whistles built in. The idea of an ORM is the best part as, we don't have to write those SQL queries. Overall this was a fun project, as I learned Django and got to use Bootstrap properly this time. Do star the repo :P
