Building My First Ecommerce with Django

I wanted to share my journey building a custom ecommerce site for a client. While I have experience creating enterprise tools and APIs for inventory management and ecommerce integrations (like Shopify), this project was unique because the client specifically wanted a fully custom-built platform tailored to their needs. It’s my first time creating a complete ecommerce site with Django, and the learning experience has been incredible.

The project, [GetVases](https://www.getvases.com), is an online boutique for selling vases. It needed to be visually appealing, user-friendly, and reliable. Balancing these requirements while diving into features like payment integration and stock management was both exciting and challenging.

# Technical Challenges

1. **Integrating Payments with Stripe**: Secure payment processing was a priority for the client. I initially started with PayPal, but its confusing documentation and webhook handling led to weeks of frustration. Switching to Stripe was a game-changer:
* I used the `stripe` library to handle payment requests.
* Webhooks were set up to update order statuses in real time.
* I’m still refining security measures for these endpoints—any best practices you can share?
2. **Real-Time Stock Management**: The client required dynamic inventory updates as customers placed orders. I implemented this using Django

MongoDB with Django, WHY?

Has anybody here ever needed to use MongoDB with Django? I'm curious to know why there is such a demand for MongoDB in the Django community, considering that Django's ORM is deeply tied to a relational structure. Why the push for Mongo?

And by "demand," I mean enough people want this for me to notice.

The top recommendations I keep seeing are terrible.

1. Use **Pymongo** - This is bad because you loose a lot of Django features such as the built-in ORM, Auth, etc
2. **Djongo** - This is NOT a valid solution. Only works with Django 3.0.5 and does not really work. Also, it has not been maintained for several years.

Train an LLM from Scratch

# What My Project Does

I created an end-to-end LLM training project, from downloading the training dataset to generating text with the trained model. It currently supports the PILE dataset, a diverse data for LLM training. You can limit the dataset size, customize the default transformer architecture and training configuration, and more.

This is what my 13 million parameter-trained LLM output looks like, trained on a Colab T4 GPU:

In ***1978, The park was returned to the factory-plate that the public share to the lower of the electronic fence that follow from the Station's cities. The Canal of ancient Western nations were confined to the city spot. The villages were directly linked to cities in China that revolt that the US budget and in Odambinais is uncertain and fortune established in rural areas.

# Target audience

This project is for students and researchers who want to learn how tiny LLMs work by building one themselves. It's good for people who want to change how the model is built or train it on regular GPUs.

# Comparison

Instead of just using existing AI tools, this project lets you see all the steps of making an LLM. You get more control over how it works.

D Have transformers won in Computer Vision?

Hi,

Transformers have reigned supreme in Natural Language Processing applications, both written and spoken, since BERT and GPT-1 came out in 2018.

For Computer Vision, last I checked it was starting to gain momentum in 2020 with An Image is Worth 16x16 Words but the sentiment then was "Yeah transformers might be good for CV, for now I'll keep using my resnets"

Has this changed in 2025? Are Vision Transformers the preferred backbone for Computer Visions?

Put another way, if you were to start a new project from scratch to do image classification (medical diagnosis, etc), how would you approach it in terms of architecture and training objective?

I'm mainly an NLP guy so pardon my lack of exposure to CV problems in industry.

How to Protect My Django Website Hosted on Lambda from Bots Without Wasting Requests?


Hi, everyone!

I’m hosting a Django website on AWS Lambda, and since Lambda charges based on the number of requests, I’m worried about bots abusing the site and driving up my costs.

I know tools like CAPTCHA can help filter bots, but since the request would already reach the Lambda function before the CAPTCHA is served, it doesn’t prevent the cost from those initial requests.

Are there strategies or tools that can block bots before they hit the Lambda endpoint? I’ve heard about WAFs (Web Application Firewalls), but I’m unsure about the best approach or whether there are other effective solutions for this type of setup.

Any advice would be greatly appreciate!

How to prepare for aptitude?

I am just starting to prepare for aptitude tests, but I find it hard to solve the problems. I understand in videos that how to solve ,but i can’t figure out how to solve it. Many problems also seem the same, which confuses me. Can you suggest some easy-to-understand YouTube channels for learning aptitude and give tips to help me improve?

Python with type hints and Mypy: regret for not using statically typed lang?

If a company adopted Python and then, after several years, integrates MyPy, wouldn't they be better off if they'd start with a statically typed language instead of Python?
This sounds like an uphill battle to get to some half-baked type-safety, but I'm not versed in Python development, so asking the pros here (I realize this might not be the best place to ask this question, to say the least, but I'll give it a try)
