Web Development

This is the work involved with building websites and web applications for the internet or a private network. It includes tasks such as web engineering, web design, web content development, working with clients, and helping to build an e-commerce strategy for businesses. Web Developers may take on all these tasks themselves, or work in conjunction with people specializing in these tasks.

Web Development is highly lucrative, and those learning it can enjoy opportunities to develop for organizations in business, education, government, healthcare, and various other sectors. Learners who master Web Development can make websites that are more accessible to individuals with disabilities; have easy-to-navigate user experiences; increase sales for companies; and countless other important uses.

We adopted Django and Django-CMS framework for our courses.  It is the most popular framework written in Python.

Django is a Model-View-Template framework that uses Python for web development. Big names such as Google, Youtube, and Instagram use this framework. Django boasts its batteries-included feature, which is a bunch of features such as authentication and messaging that Django has. It follows the Convention Over Configuration pattern and the DRY pattern as well. Security in Django is essential. Django provides techniques and tools for developers to build a secure website or implements the security features in the framework itself, like preventing code execution in the template layer. If you want to learn Django, just click on this link Framework of Web project(python django).   to take you to that specific course
