Django 3 By Example - Third Edition

Rendering and Caching Content

In the previous chapter, you used model inheritance and generic relations to create flexible course content models. You implemented a custom model field, and you built a course management system using class-based views. Finally, you created an AJAX-based drag-and-drop functionality to order course modules and their contents.

In this chapter, you will build the functionality to access course contents, create a student registration system, and manage student enrollment onto courses. You will also learn how to cache data using the Django cache framework.

In this chapter, you will:

• Create public views for displaying course information
• Build a student registration system
• Manage student enrollment onto courses
