What is Docker?

Docker is a DevOps tool that allows people of all computer backgrounds(Mac, Windows, Linux, etc…) to collaborate on the same project without any environmental errors. It is fast and easy to implement. Once the environment is set up, then all it takes to be in the same environment is to run a simple line of code that the author creates.

How to start

The first goal that needs to be accomplished when first getting into docker is to obtain a personal domain from several different websites(I used Namecheap).

My first love was not a lover, but rather the beauty in which I discovered when I was younger. This love has yet to fade away: the peace and serenity I’ve been shown from the rays of light that is cast down. The almighty sun has given me such an extraordinary privilege of being able to witness the magnificent trees, creeks, mountains, and waterfalls.

I sit back and admire the things that are around me. I notice that the grass may be slightly greener, and the sun’s rays are hitting the sky a little bit brighter today. I sit underneath a large oak tree and reminisce on the beauty I am witnessing. I think of what it means to me to be one with my surroundings. To notice how the birds chirp above my head, how the ants are all lining up going up and down the tree, and how the leaves move so gently and elegantly slicing through the thick humid air on a mid-October day. I didn’t have much in mind, I was just in amazement that there could be such wonder and uncertainty within my own thoughts. Knowing that the things I am doing now will be different tomorrow, yet the beauty I see will stay the same the next day. My mind slows to recognize the leaves falling, swaying left to right — right to left. Every motion that these leaves are making, I am taking notice until they reach their final destinations. …

Django and Flask are both great platforms for creating awesome projects, but they have a lot of different functionality.

Django

To start a Django project you need to run a specific line of code and another line of code to start the individual apps. When you create the initial project, Django gives you a preset folder titled settings.py. This file comes with everything built-in and doesn’t require any major changes for a simple Django project. This file contains things such as, the time zone in which your project is being displayed and it also contains every additional application that you create.

Django allows you to be able to create a project fast and efficiently to the point where you can master the basic command lines to be able to create a minimal project within an hour's time. This is possible due to most files being built in when you are creating your project apps. There is only one major file that is not already given to you. The file that is not included is a urls.py file that will route the application to the proper page that is being called upon. The files that are included are a models.py file that contains the functionality of the app where you can create everything that is being stored in the database. Yes, Django comes with a built-in database! There is a views.py file where you are creating the functionality of the models.py file. These three files are the main portions of a Django project because this is where a large portion of the user information is being stored. These files also allow the user to have some sort of visualization of what your project looks like. …
