After a lot of down-time whilst I made a few repairs to my van and got a replacement car for my Dad. I managed to squeeze in some Coding,
I had a chat with Bob @ PyBites and have been interested in an intensive course that would involve a lot of coding in Python, Django and whatever else.
As I hadn't really done anything too heavy before, I thought that now I have the basic setup of a Django project in my head I would follow through a tutorial by Corey Schafer and change it to my liking as I went through it. Changing the colour theme was a must to start with, the CSS was easy enough, using Bootstrap 4 I will have a look deeper into that.
A couple of the forms, at the point in the tutorial, didn't have functionality that I thought that it should have.

Editing a Post didn't have a Cancel option to return to the Home page. In the Update option, there was only an option to Post. If I made a hash of the edit I would want a Cancel to get me out of there and back to the edit options.
So learning about Django, seeing functionality that I think was missed and enjoying coding.
