A simple LinkedIn site with django

[David Gomez]

I have project in mind and I was thinking how hard is to create my project. Is going to be like a LinkedIn, but a simple one. How hard is to make a web application like this? And what is the hardest part? Thanks in advance

Hardest task is write to the paper what you want. After this it is
possible to prepare information what you want. I have few projects
with a similar descriptions. The main problem for all is really
simple : project creator can not write to paper (project requirements
are better)
. As resukt a lot of programmers write crappy code.

Thanks,
Serge

When you say is write to the paper, what do you mean? I'm new in programming and I just looking for a project, so  I can learn on the fly. I'm looking almost the same as linkedin with less option. Like when a user go to the website, they see the main page, then they can to register, adding their personal information (school, resume, etc...). Also other section for employers where they register and after the register they can search for future hiring.

So you want a website that display some (probably static) home page.
It must have a system to allow users to register, setting username,
password and perhaps other information
It must have a system to allow employers to do the same, but
differentiate between the two
You need to understand how to create models in django and learn to use
modelforms to allow users to enter information

If you get that far, come back. In between there will be a lot of questions.

First step, go through the django tutorial. Do it two or three times
Second step, search for other tutorials on django programming. You
will find more than several -- both video and text.
Go through several of these to help your understanding.

Then go back to your project when you think you understand all the
django pieces:
1. urls.py
2. settings --
3. database settings
4. models
5. views

When its all done you will need to learn to deploy it on a 'real server'

If you are new to programming, you have a lot in front of you. Not
days, not weeks, but months

keep at it

Oh, and also read python tutorials, and write python code to learn how
python works. Django is a python application, so if you can't write
in python, you can't use django

Waooo, this is the first time that I ask something in a post and somebody reply me with what I want. Thanks a lot. Well about Python, I'm a network engineer and in my job they encounter an issue that a script was needed, so I choose Pyhton and basically in the last month, I been doing python automation script for login into routers and grabbing info and either save it as a text file or spreadsheet. People at my swear that I have years of experience with Python, LOL. Thanks a lot.

In this case I'm proposing to start from simple things.
You have saving data from router to the text file ? Perfect.
Simple plan:
Write a structure of the records
Build a django model on it
Try to save your data using django model
View your data in your browser via django vie and template

Need more ?
Learn javascript and switch all view to Ajax

thanks,

Serge
