What I Learned Deploying My First Website Using Django, VueJS, Docker and Digital Ocean
00:00 What I learned from deploying my first project
04:08 What was the most annoying problem that I ran into
In this video I talk about what I learned deploying my first website. The tech stack I used for this project was Django, VueJS, Docker and Digital Ocean.
Deploying django to production can be achieved in numerous ways. Personally I decided deploying django on digital ocean would be the best fit as I knew I could easily rent an ubuntu server simial to my local machine on which I built the website.
Deploying a website can be tricky. Whilst deploying django I found my biggest issue to be with static files although eventually the solution was really simple and only occurred because I wasn't very experienced with nginx.
Initially I tried to deploy my django project with nginx, gunicorn, systemd manually but then came across the cookie cutter project and decided to dockerize my entire project which made deploying it super easy.
