[@andresjacome6200]

@@DennisIvy is it worth it to learn Django 2021? I have read blogs and online recommendations, everyone seems to put Flask ahead of Django Rest Framework

[@tagifts]

@@andresjacome6200 I know django. I don't know flask. What I understand from other people opinion is django is more robust/capable than flask. I don't know the job demand though.

[@bigpickles]

Kids these days not understanding the meaning of literal!

[@wokeezz]

For real, I've been binging his channel more than anything else 😂

[@salimkachemela]

I always wondered how the Django interview is like, thanks a lot Dennis.

[@techdome3d]

This is my favorite channel for learning Django. Thanks Dennis and please keep creating great contents like this, we appreciate it so much! 💪💪

[@zolika154]

He might not know, but Dennis and freecodecamp lauched my whole damn career :D

[@shaiksadik2541]

R u working? R u a django developer

[@iemon5842]

When I discovered your channel, I was so happy to finally have a teacher who can explain complicated stuff in very shorts, but so CLEAR. Before I started your courses, Django was really a taught topic for me. Although now I've got my internship in this area.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. Dennis, you're an awesome teacher who teaches so elegantly inspiring students by the way! Best of the best❤

[@manuellopes9521]

I saw this video last week, i'm still standing clapping. Thanks Dennis 🙌👍

[@venkateshanap3271]

You're Django tutorials and the way of teaching is so good and very easy to learn. I really loved it. Because whenever I heard the word 'Django' people will started to say Django is hard to learn but you made it as simple as that. Thank you Dennis. This video is also very helpful

[@Jollyjoky]

I watch this channel with open mind, open heart and taking as much notes as I can

[@moestaxx286]

this video was quite overwhelming to me because I do not really know to much about django. this just honestly motivating me to learn as much as I can and thats what I'll do, thanks Dennis. great video.

[@Thatonedude96]

So I’ve been developing in Django for only a few weeks tbh. I’ve studied the documentation fairly well and I’m about to start working on my second Django project. What shocked me is I knew almost every question as well as able to give examples. This really boosted my confidence and let’s me know my studying is paying off. For front end ik HTML and CSS very well JavaScript im decent at I can manipulate the DOM fairly well. I may start applying for a junior role soon. Thank you :)

[@estebanhirzfeld6604]

I feel the same! Did you get a job?

[@numen428]

good luck. probably you landed a new job. but never lose hope. sometimes you wont get hired coz of over-competency. human nature ( from interviewer side ). Just accept it when it happens

[@adibaalotualexander2484]

Great, how's it going now?

[@EudesRodrigo]

I knew everything you asked because of your free UA-cam course. Thanks a lot!

[@naineshrathod2392]

Ireally love the efforts you put in man!!🙌🙌🙌. Keep up the good work

[@jiwonkim89]

Thank you so so much for this video! I have an early Django SWE interview next week, and your videos have helped me brush up a lot on Django ideas and concepts. I know most of the answers to these questions so I am feeling quite encouraged! Will be practicing talking through the answers in this video!

[@moriayo8750]

Hey, hi.
I hope your interview was a successful one.

[@rossli8621]

There are videos on coding interviews. There are also tutorial videos on Django. But yours is the first video I encountered that focuses on both things. Love this focuses perspective, also provides a sketched outline of learning path of Django. Keep it up!

[@omarraafat14]

It's the best video I've watched for an interview preparation!

[@mediacatalyst1094]

Thank you Dennis. This is simply amazing.

[@hamzasabri5610]

[@eagleofsharm]

Really good video, Thanks Denis.

[@jj-big-slay-yo]

Now I wonder what would be your intermediate / medior / advanced questions be? Like what are websockets, how you can use them with django? Difference between wsgi / asgi? What is a UUID good for? How would you do a backend queue & what is it good for? And similar stuff. Also how would you integrate a django app with react or vue? What are your options? Pros / contras?

[@mikeadigu2704]

Thanks a lot my mentor, I have been in Django for about 5months now, I was know 90%of the questions I feel I now have the confidence to apply for the position of a junior developer

[@daveh9941]

Top channel, was learning Python and needed to start building Web apps so I can apply for jobs. This channel covers great material and with Django it feels like everything has clicked together.
My question is, is Django an in demand framework? What's the outlook for future Web apps?

[@danielvaliente007]

Thank you for the information

[@AcademyOmen]

[@moqbelel_saidy4698]

Thank you brother for sharing your knowledge. I have been learning a lot from your channel and your course on Udemy. Keep it up

[@psykepro]

Great video! Just to clarify one thing: models.ForeignKey sets Many-To-One not One-To-Many relationship on the model which is added. Which adds by implicitly One-To-Many relationship to the other model. :)

[@mohamadrezamotaghi7427]

Thank You. I didn't know anything about Django but I watched this video, went to my interview, got the job, and now after just 10 days I feel like I've learned a considerable amount(In comparison to the 2 weeks ago version of myself) of the framework. Thank you very much.

I have no Django exp and 3 years Flask. Tomorrow I'll have an interview on Django position. And this video might add up a few years exp for me :) Thanks, Dennis. Btw a lot of common with Flask, they are not 1 million miles away from each other

[@piyush-singh]

You're a gem

[@maxrokitsky]

Probably the most important question about django we ask in an interview is about lazy querysets. A lot of people dont know that something like .filter() doesn't actually send request to the database immediately. And this is clearly an indication that the interviewee doesn't have any significant experience with django.

[@idle.observer]

I'm a .NET developer and decided to switch to Django and encounter this video. I know languages might be similar etc. but I didn't expect that much similarity. I literally answered correctly for most questions. Just different names but quite similar concepts DRF is .NET WebApi etc. Great content, thank you!

[@amirsohail963]

Smoothy !!!
