It's exactly what I need to customize Django admin and have deeper understanding of the Django framework. Highly recommend it to developers.

Verified Purchase

I got messed u with all the versions mismatch between Python & Django.

My advice. Make a book that is practical. Choose an IDE (say PyCharm). Give a no-nonsense link for download of exact versions of everything that is needed for the book. And illustrate every lab with real input & output from that IDE.

I make a comparison with someone learning Microsoft ASP.Net MVC5. Everything is clear from the start. You know which IDE, DB, libraries... everything is set for effective learning.

Visit Indian learning sites like www.questpond.com. This will give you an idea of what effective training on programming is. $52 for a complete Professional Course.

Excellent cookbook for beginner and intermediate alike!

Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2015

[I received a review copy of this book at no cost to myself!]

Django is the big name when it comes to python web frameworks. Like it or not if you use python you almost certainly know of it. But Django isn't only a big name it is an extensive framework with so much functionality it can be daunting.

So it comes that I am reviewing another cookbook: "Web Development with Django Cookbook" by Aidas Bendoraitis.

The book covers Django 1.6 and although the current version is 1.7 the author makes a point of mentioning when something is significantly different (South support for example).

The recipes run the gamut from setup and project structure, through template tags and models, to data import/export and deployment. There are even recipes covering Django CMS.

I'll be honest and say I haven't worked through every recipe but those that I have worked through were well presented and accurate. This is definitely a book I will keep by my side while working on Django projects.

Definitely Recomended - one of the best "hands-on" approach to Django

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2014

Disclaimer - I received a free copy of the ebook.

I was a bit skeptical about this book, as any book with "cookbook" in the title. As far as I know, experience is the only way to really acquire software engineering competence.

With this review, I apologize. The only (small) negative point is that is targeting Django 1.6, but this is an issue only with the migrations part.
The book is splitted in 10 different chapters, and although you will see a "getting started" one, the approach is to go deep in common issues that anybody serious on django related development will meet.
From path settings, common / best project structure, to advanced topics like model mixins (common case like modification date and time for record), Hierarchical structures (django mptt power is discussed here) and CMS integration: practical solutions with plenty of code and, most interesting, the "How it works" section for every recipe that tells a lot of Django inner workings.
I give the book high ratings and really recommend it.

Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2014

I feel this cookbook offers something to a lot of developers in the Django space. If you are a Django guru, you may find that the book dosn't offer you enough to justify the purchase.

Since im fairly new to using Django, I actually found a lot of the code to actually be useful. I found chapters 3-5 (Forms/Views/Templates/Custom Tags) and 9 (Data import and export) to provide a lot of information that would either be immediately useful or useful as a reference down the road.

There are a few things that I didn't like about the book, but they are small issues that may only be a problem with a pdf/ebook version of the book. I prefer to have comments in the code explaining how this code is actually working, instead we have a section after the code explaining how the code works. The way this is handled in a pdf/ebook make following the code a little more difficult.

Also be aware that this book is for Django 1.6, with 1.7 being the current major release.

I see the book offering value to almost everyone, but your experience with Django will effect the end value you get from this book.

Very good Django resource

Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2014

Very useful book for Django developers, especially since there aren't too many books out there on Django the last couple of years. The recipes are real-world, practical examples. Most developers will find at least a dozen things they can readily implement in future projects.

Small point of criticism: sometimes it feels best practices are being ignored.
