Modules
Module 1 — Foundations: Build the Core Application
In this module, we build the complete foundation of our Django blog project.
Starting from an empty environment, you'll learn how Django projects are structured and how the core components work together in practice. Rather than learning isolated concepts, everything is applied directly inside one growing application.
By the end of this module, you will have a fully functional multi-app Django project with public pages, authenticated admin features, and clean project structure.
