Course Overview
Pull Crypto News From An API and Build A Website With Django and Python!
Cryptocurrencies are all the rage right now. Wouldn't it be cool to build a website that shows Crypto news automatically? That's what we'll learn in this course!
We'll build a website using Django (version 2.0.7) and Python (version 3.7.0) and Bootstrap (version 4.1.1) that connects to a free third party crypto API.
We'll be able to pull news stories, crypto price data, and all kinds of cool stuff, and output it onto the screen of our website automatically.
Who Should Take This Course?
This course is aimed at the beginner. You don't need to know Python, or Django, or Bootstrap...or anything at all...to take this course. I'll walk you through it all; step by step. If you already know the basics of any of those things, you'll be fine too. You'll still learn some cool things along the way!
What Tools Do You Need To Take This Course?
You don't need any special tools to take this course. We'll be downloading everything we need for free. I'm on a Windows computer, but if you're on a Linux or a Mac, you'll be able to follow along just fine. (They're will be a few different commands for mac users, but I'll try to point them out along the way)
What if you don't like the course?
I offer an unconditional, 30-day Money back Guarantee. If you aren't happy for any reason, you get your money back! No hoops to jump through at all.
What if you get stuck along the way?
I'm here answering questions everyday! Just shoot me a message and I'll personally walk you through it. Unlike a lot of instructors here, I actually care about my students success and I spend a lot of time answering questions to make sure you understand everything.
My name is John Elder and I hope to see you on the inside!

Originally, I had a different rating for this course until I understood what this instructor was trying to do. This is not a beginners course where you will have explanations why or extreme detail on the syntax. As someone who is strong in python but no Django, I had to understand that the professor is trying to get you a working web-app within 2 hours. The videos are concise and each have an objective. If you know that going in, it allows you to frame your mindset on what you will get from this course.

Each topic is of short duration, helps to understand better and keeps you hooked to course. I did feel speed is fast, i reduced to 0.75X to match and no problem.

Great, concise, fast paced and doesn't overdo it with small details you can research on your own. Perfect for what I was trying to learn and lays a good foundation of resources to use in future projects.
