Course Overview
Learn real-world examples of how businesses develop and securely deploy applications into the cloud
This course is meant to provide you with some real-world examples of building React and Django applications using test driven design. React Context will be used for state management in the front end application. Django will be used as an API back end application, using the Django REST framework. You will use Azure DevOps Repo to store application source code and use Azure Pipelines to automate the building and testing of the code. You will learn to package the applications in containers and deploy them into a development Azure Kubernetes Service environment that is not accessible to the Internet. Nginx will be used to serve the static files for the React front end and the Django administration site. You will deploy a private PostgreSQL database for the backend application, keeping the data safely off the Internet. Using an Azure VPN to connect to the development environment, you will be able to confirm the application functionality. PGAdmin will be used to connect to the database over the VPN. Proper management of secret information, such as database passwords and email passwords, will be addressed by integrating Kubernetes with Azure Key Vault. You will also learn to perform Django database migrations in cloud environments. After performing security testing in the development environment, you will create the production environment and deploy the application to the public.

Outdated Dependencies: Most dependencies mentioned in the course are outdated or deprecated. Installation methods are backdated and don't work with current tools. Unclear Dependency List: The instructor mentions "installing basic dependencies," which are about 16 in number, but doesn't explicitly provide a clear list. Although some of the dependencies are described quickly, there's no comprehensive list or detailed explanation provided. Obscured Video Feed: The instructor pastes commands into the terminal while his video feed obscures the terminal output, making it impossible to see which dependencies are being installed. Rushed Delivery: The instructor moves too quickly through the content without adequately explaining his actions, leaving viewers confused.

I like the way he is constitence and rigorous in the way he teach the lesson. He is a great teacher. He is doing an amazing job here. I do not regret any dollard I put in there ! But it will be great if he can do something like that for a whole ecommerce web site to cover lot of things there.

Both TATA and Mercedes make cars and you know the difference. This course teaches the Mercedes method of building react-django application and shows how code is built in top notch companies, and to have the minimum chance of having a bug in your app. He also respects your time and gives a course full of meat, no onion and cheap fillings in your sandwich. I would love to have more of James courses and I really appreciate that he provides this course on Udemy not a more expensive platform.
