This project is a Django-based mini blog application designed to illustrate the implementation of the Services and Repositories design pattern. It features a clear separation of concerns, making the codebase easier to maintain and extend.
You can follow the step by step of the making of the app on my blog: My blog.
You can see the application test here: Testing App.
- Posts and Comments: Users can create, update, and delete blog posts and comments.
- RESTful API: Provides endpoints for interacting with the application programmatically.
- Web Interface: Offers a basic user-friendly interface for managing posts and comments.
- Service Layer: Contains business logic and orchestrates interactions between views and repositories.
- Repository Layer: Encapsulates data access logic, providing a clean API for the service layer.
- Django Admin: Allows administrative management of posts and comments.
The project follows a modular structure, with each app having its own models, views, serializers, services, and repositories.
