Welcome to the 4K Display Django application project. This project utilizes the power of JavaScript, AJAX, and Bootstrap 5.

The main goal of this project is to showcase 4K images on a small social media platform.

1. CRUD app using Django, JavaScript, and AJAX.
2. Manipulating DOM with vanilla JavaScript.
3. Running AJAX calls and using AJAX & vanilla JavaScript in a Django project to improve user experience.
4. Implementing Bootstrap 5 elements such as modals, carousels.
5. Integrating Dropzone.js for a seamless file uploading experience.
6. Adding a spinner to the project to indicate ongoing processes.
7. Loading more data on a button click for a more dynamic user interface.
8. Implementing like/unlike functionality for posts using AJAX.
9. Creating custom decorators in Django for enhanced security and customization.

This project serves as a testament to the versatility and power of Django, JavaScript, AJAX, and Bootstrap 5 when combined effectively. By exploring the codebase and documentation, you will gain a deeper understanding of how these technologies can be leveraged to create feature-rich, visually appealing, and interactive web applications.

Feel free to dive into the project, study the implementation, and use it as a reference or inspiration for your own Django-based projects. Contributions, suggestions, and feedback are always welcome.

Depending on how you want to use this project, you may want to run it locally on your machine. If so follow the steps on this section:

1. Install virtualenv: Once you have installed Python, you can install virtualenv using pip. Open your terminal (Command Prompt for Windows) and type:

pip install virtualenv

MacOS & Linux

2. Create a virtual environment: To create a virtual environment, go to the directory where you want to create it and run the following command:

virtualenv myenv

Here, myenv is the name of the virtual environment. You can choose any name you want.

3. Activate the virtual environment: To activate the virtual environment, run the following command:

source myenv/bin/activate

Windows

On Windows, the command is slightly different:

myenv\Scripts\activate.bat

1. Open the command prompt
2. Navigate to the directory that contains the requirements.txt file.
3. Run the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Run inside the directory containing manage.py file:

python manage.py runserver

Prepare:

python manage.py makemigrations

Run:

python manage.py migrate
