Full-stack Development with Django: Managing Migrations

Within this 2-hour long guided project you will learn how to develop a fullstack web application using Django framework. The focus of this Django course resides in dealing with the django migrations which defines the database structure, having a more intensive part in the backend rather thant the templates frontend. Your mission is to create a proof of concept for a new investment product which will be easily understood by non-investors. This bot monitors the exchange rates between two currencies and automatically performs a currency exchange transaction when the rate is favorable by a certain small threshold, mimicking the operations of traditional currency exchange companies. You have been assigned to develop a proof of concept project based on this idea. The initiative's success hinges on your pace of development. This opportunity places you in a key role, potentially making you a standout figure for this new minimal viable product. To create this minimal viable product, you will set up a Django project with the admin UI enabled, create Django migrations (including an empty migration with data to be inserted), roll back buggy migrations, and render a dashboard to display the current balance status of your portfolio. After completing this guided project, you will have set up a Django project from scratch, gaining backend knowledge about how to handle real-life data structure iterations. Furthermore, you will have an MVP of a trading bot that you can use for your own investments. To get the most out of this course, some experience with Python, relational databases, and HTML is recommended.
