The goal here is simple code. You can read through everything in a short time and get a good idea of how you could put these pieces together.

Setup

  • Create and activate a vitualenv
  • Run pip install -r requirements.txt

Website

  • Access site at /. Not much there, just a basic example for logging in

Admin

  • Access admin at /admin

API auth

  • POST /api/v1/auth {'username': '', 'password': ''}
