Usage of Django (API) for Backend #7

Open ShehriyarShariq opened 2 years ago

ShehriyarShariq commented 2 years ago

Sir, can the backend be instead developed in Python using the Django Rest Framework?

socialyadept commented 2 years ago

Good idea Sheriyar, I'll add to that since Django has wide adoption and a strong community.

hasanalikhattak commented 2 years ago

does it run on Github pages

ShehriyarShariq commented 2 years ago

Yes, sir. It would be a simple API call. Github pages does have support for AJAX and it allows calls over HTTPS.

hasanalikhattak commented 2 years ago

but the page needs to be hosted somewhere else ?

ShehriyarShariq commented 2 years ago

The API can be hosted for free on https://www.pythonanywhere.com/ . It also provides free HTTPS support.

hasanalikhattak commented 2 years ago

great, you can begin by creating the form first.

Great. I can create a documentation on postman for the person who will be doing frontend, so that it's easier to coordinate. I'll also make a simple form for testing purposes.
