Welcome to my Django learning journey — documented, structured, and evolving in real-time. This repo begins with setting up Django from scratch and progresses into building a full-featured To-Do App using Django’s powerful capabilities.

This repository covers both foundational and intermediate-level Django development concepts :-

• Setting up a Django Project & App
• Virtual Environment Configuration
• Understanding Django Project Structure
• URL Routing and Views

• CRUD Operations with Django ORM
• SQLite3 Integration
• User Authentication (Login/Logout)
• Middleware Implementation
• Real-Time Updates with Django Channels
• API Endpoints: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE
• Pagination & Query Parameters
• Postman API Testing and Collection Export

A fully functional, tested To-Do Application:

• Create, read, update, delete tasks
• Filter tasks using parameters
• Authenticate users for personalized task lists
• Real-time updates when a task is added or modified
