This is my attempt at a substack basic clone.
Django backend, front end is purely HTML, CSS/Bootstrap, and HTMX with a touch of jQuery.
Areas to improve for future projects:
- The CSS is messy. I mix bootstrap, with a styles.css sheet, as well as in-html styling. This is an unacceptable practice in the real world as it is not structured in a logical manner if anyone else needed to go back and review/work on it
- Lack of unittesting. In future projects, my plan is to follow TDD-structured development style as it is practical and will help protect against bugs as the codebase develops.
