What are web frameworks?
Web frameworks are software libraries or toolkits that provide developers with a set of pre-written code and functionalities to support web application development. They provide a structured approach to building web applications by offering ready-made components, templates, and tools for tasks such as handling HTTP requests, managing databases, and rendering web pages. Web frameworks make it easier for developers to create dynamic, interactive, and scalable web applications by abstracting away low-level details and providing a set of conventions and best practices. Examples of popular web frameworks include React.js, Angular, Ruby on Rails, Django, and Flask.
Does anyone have a tutorial or explanation of boostratp to complement? It still has me a little confused
Bootstrap is a front-end web development framework that helps you create responsive and mobile-first websites. There are plenty of resources available online that can help you learn Bootstrap.
If you're just starting, the official Bootstrap documentation is a great place to begin and it contains a lot of information about the framework. You can find it here: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.5/getting-started/introduction/
There are also some great tutorials on websites like W3Schools (https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/) and Tutorialspoint (https://www.tutorialspoint.com/bootstrap/index.htm) that can help you learn Bootstrap in a more hands-on way.
Once you start getting the hang of it, you can check out Bootstrap templates (https://startbootstrap.com/) that are free to download and modify. These templates provide a solid starting point and help to demonstrate advanced features, layouts, and integrations.
Remember that practice is key, so the more you use Bootstrap, the more comfortable you'll become with it.
How to use Django forms
Django forms allow you to quickly and easily create and manage HTML forms. To use Django forms, create a Form class from the forms module. This class can be used to generate a form with fields, form layout and validations. For example:
python Copy code
from django import forms
class SampleForm(forms.Form):
your_name = forms.CharField(label='Your name', max_length=100)
favorite_color = forms.ChoiceField(choices=[ ('blue', 'Blue'), ('green', 'Green'), ('black', 'Black') ])
This code creates a Form Class called SampleForm with two fields - your_name and favorite_color.
Once the model class is created, it can be used to generate an HTML form in the template. For example:
python Copy code
<form action="/your-name/" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.as_p }}
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
The form is rendered in the template with the HTML fields, labels and validations. To learn more about using Django forms, see the Django Forms Documentation.

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. AI bots are able to learn from conversations with users and expand their knowledge this way.
SheCodes Athena will help you with technical questions about your code using artificial intelligence to find the answer. Imagine a super powerful human who has memorized everything on the internet and can access that knowledge in a matter of seconds. 🤯
SheCodes Athena can answer most coding-related questions, even complicated ones! It can even find bugs in your code and tell you how to fix them in just a few seconds. Impressive, right?
Just remember we're still in testing mode so the AI may return strange or incorrect replies. Feel free to message us if this happens!
SheCodes Athena can only reply to coding-related technical questions. The same type of questions you would ask in the channels on Slack.
For questions that are not coding-related, write us here 😃
You should treat Athena like a SheCodes team member, so always be polite! 😊 Ask your questions as detailed as possible, just like you would do on Slack.
Here are some examples:
- Prettier isn't working on my VS Code. How do I fix this?
- How do I make bullet points with different colors using the list element?
- My code in Codesandbox is having some issues. Can you please tell me what the issue is? [Include the link to your Codesandbox]
For now, SheCodes Athena is limited to 5 questions per day for each student.
In that case, you can either ask SheCodes Athena a follow-up question, or you can post on the designated weekly channel on Slack!
Our technical assistants are still available on Slack and are always happy to help! 😍💪
Remember, questions are limited to 1000 characters.
- If you're working with an HTML file: Post a snippet of your code related to the issue you're having (just copy the code and paste it into the question box).
- If you're working with Codesandbox: Good news, you can just post the link to your Codesandbox and the AI Assistant will be able to view your code.
- If you have a longer question that would require an entire HTML file or more than 1000 characters, post it in the designated weekly channels on Slack! 😃
Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, among other elements. She received her name from the city of Athens, which she is known for protecting.
Much like the goddess Athena, SheCodes Athena is also incredibly wise and can solve complicated coding puzzles in a matter of seconds! 😍
Not likely. AI can automate tasks and make developers' jobs more efficient but it can't fully replace the human ability to deal with complex software. And AI will still require human developers to supervise and improve it further.
So developers may see their tasks change but they won't be replaced by AI. 👩💻🤝💻
