This is one of the many templates available from W3Schools. Check our tutorials for frontend development to learn the basics of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. 🦄
Also check Python and Django tutorials to grasp the backend of this template.
To be able to fully understand and modify this template to your needs, there are several things you should know (or learn):
Do not change DATABASE_URL and SECRET_KEY, as these are generated. If they are changed the space may not behave as predicted. Remember to switch DEBUG to false when going to production
Customize this template to make it your own.
Remember to make your layout responsive - if you want your site to look good on smaller screens like mobile.
This template is made by using several technologies. Below are explanations about where to find specific code.
HTML files are stored in a folder called templates. Files have .html extension.
In templates/base.html you can add your external links and scripts, or change other meaningful things that is relevant on every page.
You can find other templates in templates/.
CSS files can be found in /blog/static/css.
You can find:
- views in
blank/views.py. - local URL configuration in
blank/urls.py. - global URL configuration in
blank_template/urls.py. - models (for tables) in
blank/models.py. - static files in
blank/static. - settings in blank_template/settings.py
Dynamic spaces can use SQLite database.
The database file is called database.db. It is placed inside the w3s-dynamic-storage folder.
SQLite connection path to the database is sqlite:///w3s-dynamic-storage/database.db which you can use to connect to the SQLite database programmatically.
For this template, the database connection path can also be found in the environment.
Do not change the w3s-dynamic-storage folder name or database.db file name!
By changing the w3s-dynamic-storage folder name or database.db file name, you risk the space not working properly.
For now files created/uploaded or edited from within the terminal view will not be backed up or synced.
Join our Discord community and ask questions in the #spaces-general channel to get your space on the next level.
