Django 2 by Example

Rendering and Caching Content

In the previous chapter, you used model inheritance and generic relationships to create flexible course content models. You also built a course management system using class-based views, formsets, and AJAX ordering for contents. In this chapter, you will:

• Create public views for displaying course information
• Build a student registration system
• Manage student enrollment in courses
• Render diverse course contents
• Cache content using the cache framework

We will start by creating a course catalog for students to browse existing courses and be able to enroll in them.
