Welcome everyone to this section of the course focusing on jingo and templates.
So in this section, we're going to begin to explore how to connect our jingo views code to template
files like HTML.
This is going to allow us to take advantage of everything that each HTML, CSS and even JavaScript have
to offer, along with any backend Python logic.
At the very end of the previous section, we showed an example of how to connect HTML to a view, but
now we're going to dive into it in a much more formal way.
So we're first going to discuss template directories, actually where you store your template files
is kind of a big deal and an important step inside of Django to make sure everything works correctly
and is scalable.
Then we'll talk about template rendering, and then that will lead into a discussion on the general
Django template language, which is similar to ginger.
And that's going to allow us to talk about context insertion that is grabbing a Python object and sending
it to the HTML.
Then we'll discuss filters and tags, URL names within templates and then template inheritance.
Then we'll talk about a few specifics regarding templates, such as static files, where should your
hosts things like images or CIUSSS files?
And then how to create your own custom four or four templates.
And at the end, we'll finish this all off with an exercise.
All right.
Let's get started.
I'll see you at the next lecture.
