In this episode of Running in Production, Dan Bader goes over how he built Real Python from scratch with Django which is a web framework written in Python. The site gets 4 million+ page views a month and it’s hosted on Heroku which costs about $700 USD / month.
What’s really cool about this project is Dan coded the site himself and his deploy process is very by the books which includes performing 1 person code reviews which I found to be great. We covered a lot of ground in this episode! Spoiler alert: he’s using the built-in Django admin.
