Platform system with Django?

[Ian]

I'm new to django, and at this point all I've done is the tutorial.

But my end goal is to create a website that serves as a platform
system.

I want users to go to my site, create an account, edit some settings/
preferences, and a subdomain (can you do this with django?).

Then within each subdomain, other people can register as users to this
particular subdomain, post things, etc.

Is it possible to do this? I can imagine the structure and how to get
the second part working (having users register on a particular
subdomain site, post things, etc), but I'm having trouble figuring out
where to get started with the first part (creating the subdomain site)

Is there a tutorial or guide to get me started with this platform
concept? Thanks so much!

of cource it can be done.
it will be your application logic jobs and the database layout...

Have you had a look at the sites framework yet: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/sites/ That might just be what you're after...

you will have to do this in python - but then django is nothing but
python anyway.

So I already have my site up and running in PHP/mySQL, but I want to
move to Django (and learn it in the process!)

The way I do it now is have a main table of posts, and the table of
posts has a column called "site". If the user accesses myproject.com/
mySite, it loads the posts from the database for everything with the
condition site=="mySite"
So I do it the same way in Django? Use the same logic, with Django's
sites framework?

That makes my life easy since the application logic is already done!
How do I handle the subdomain, though?

Thanks!
