I love to create tutorials where I can help more people get into programming. The newest video tutorial I have created is called "Learn how to build a simple Twitter clone using Django and Vue.js" and it is around 3 hours long. It thought about doing a series like I have done earlier, but wanted to make one long video instead this time.
During this video, you will learn how to build a simple twitter clone / a simple social network. Some of the cool functionality I can mention is following users, direct messages, notifications and feed. You will learn a lot of Django in this video, but I have also used Vue.js to talk to the backend, for validation etc.
Here is a list of "tasks" I will go through during this video:
\-Setup and create project
\-Create folders for structure and similar
\-Create app for core views, oinks, userprofiles, notifications
\-Create base html files
\-Create front page with some information
\-Create login and signup page
\-Create page for "my feed"
\-Make it possible to sign out
\-Make it possible to write an oink (Vue.js - Submit and append to list)
\-Make it possible to search for oinkers and oinks
\-Make it possible to follow an oinker (Vue.js - Send using Ajax)
\-Make it possible to see my followers / who I follow
\-Make it possible to see who other oinkers follows / are followed by
\-Make it possible to like an Oink
\-Add page for conversations / direct messages
\-Make it possible to see a conversation
\-Make it possible to send a direct message (Vue.js - Submit and append to list)
\-Deploy to a server

I would really love to get your opinion on the content and similar here. What would you do different? Any other functionality you're missing that I could add in a follow up video?
Stein my man I love your videos, especially the SaaS and e-commerce one! I’ll watch this soon and reply here!
I loved this video thanks. Is it possible can you do a POS system tutorial?
Believe me ! Django + vuejs stuff creators are awesome.
Note : I will end on the same stack for blogging.
For that small use case of Vue in this project is vue not needed at all. It is just an importan which create an bloat 🙂
Would be great to put source code on github too
It’s pretty cool but there’s one thing I wish it didn’t have –

Would really love to see someone creating multi page apps with Vue and not use the CDN. Have you been able to figure this out, u/codewithstein?
