% cd slides
% make

Running the code samples

The blog application code sample used in the talk is available under code-sample. You will need to source the requirements.txt file to run it.

% cd code-sample
% ./manage.py migrate           # Creates a local sqlite database with some blog data
% ./manage.py createsuperuser   # Creates a user account for your local django admin
% ./manage.py runserver

Then open your browser to http://localhost:8000 and login with the account created above with createsuperuser.

The interesting bits of code are in blog/models.py and blog/admin.py.
