@avdonovan thanks for all of this! I'm going to dive in now to see if I can make sense of this. My feeling is that if we're in a semi-wrapped state, we can just merge this to master first? Getting to the point where the PR is big enough that it's hard to review everything.

Also feel free to edit the PR description; I don't think I'm using the technically right language.

Ok I looked through this, and I think at least superficially, this makes sense. I have a few questions which I'll ask in a separate comment, but any problems just merging this to master for now once we resolve those questions? For anyone else wondering how to rerun this, you can do

python manage.py runserver

This gives me

@VincentLa14 I'm glad to hear this branch makes sense. Lemme know if you have other questions too, and/or we can go over it on Wednesday. I agree it's pretty close to merging. There are a few more things I wanted to do first; I'll try to get to these tonight:

1. Add a readme for how to run locally (I'll just copy your comment for this)
2. Better naming of the apps to distinguish what they do; e.g. rename first_project/firstapp to first_project/api_server and first_project/sba_app to first_project/web_app
3. Resolve the duplicate models per your comment

[avdonovan]

OK I pushed 3 changes per my last comment, lemme know how they look.

@avdonovan LGTM I have some questions also just related to still being new to Django. I can ask you about it later tonight. But I'm good to merge this in whenever at this point. Thanks for doing the renaming.
