Need Design Suggestions for My Django App Dashboards

Hi guys,

I have a simple setup with a regular user and superuser dashboard:

If you log in with regular user credentials, you’re taken to the regular user dashboard, where you can view the "mailing list" from a PostgreSQL database.
If you log in as a superuser, you’ll be taken to the Super User Dashboard, where you can CRUD the mailing list from the same PostgreSQL database.

The problem now is the design of the dashboards, login, and signup pages. I’ve mostly used a template from Bootstrap (CSS and JavaScript), Google Fonts, static CSS, and style.css.

My boss wants the web app to have a "professional" or "client-ready" look.

Can you suggest any designs or templates I can easily integrate into my web application?

Thanks in advance!

Here is the sample interface:

Login Screen

Sign-Up Screen

Super User Dashboard

User Management \(Where the super users can see all the users and can edit\/delete users and also their recent action logs are shown

Regular User Dashboard \(where the regular users can see the mailing list and generate report via \(CSV\/PDF file\)

Looking for some advice!

Finished a python tech degree with TeamTreehouse and then went on to do a course from Dennis Ivy on the django framework... Since then have built my own little project and launced it on heroku. Previous to this I was doing a FEWD course but decided that it wasn't really my forte.. I mean it would be alright to have to do a bit of it here and there if I was working on a team and noticed something wasn't jiving but ALL day long I would prefer not to be doing design.. My question is this.. I know we have all had imposture syndrome at some point.. I have been doing this off and on now learning for lets say a year and I am wondering where does one even look for a django job! Or how would you reccomend to start? Really and truly at this point I would love to do an internship and be a part of a team or work on a project with a community but every time I go looking for jobs or internships it seems not many people specify django in their posting... Should I be branching off and learning something else?

Multicharting + Live Streaming Tool for IBKR

# What My Project Does

It's finally here! I set out on my journey on Python 4 years to one day create my own trading/charting tool. Now, I am sharing this dashboard that has been an on-off project along this journey. It comes together with the following features:

* Live data, together with candlestick charting thats updated on intervals.
* Multi-charting functionalities, up to 6 charts per screen (you can open multiple tabs).
* In the home page, a built in Bloomberg news stream.
* Ticker search functionalities on IBKR offerings.
* Indicators in Typescript, and can be added on to in the code.

For now, the project data streams only caters to IBKR, which is what I am using primarily. Hopefully through this post, I can find contributors much more talented than me (which I am sure most of you are) to work together and continue making improvements this project. The main goal to continue to work towards making a non-paywalled, high-quality analytics completely open source.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and you can check out the project here: [https://github.com/lvxhnat/ibkr-charts](https://github.com/lvxhnat/ibkr-charts) :)

# Target Audience

Engineers / developers with IBKR accounts interested in trading/investments.

Question about implementation of sending emails

I'm creating a web application following Miguel's mega-tutorial.
I'm on lesson 7 and I've encountered a problem: for some reason, despite having intentionally caused an error in my site, no message appears in the second terminal where aiosmtpd is running.
I don't understand why nothing appears. These are my bits of code that I used to try to make this stuff work:

in config file:

import os

basedir = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))  # Questa variabile immagazzina il percorso della directory principale sottoforma di stringa

class Config:
    SECRET_KEY = os.environ.get('SECRET_KEY') or b'mykey'
    SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = os.environ.get('DATABASE_URL') or \
        'sqlite:///' + os.path.join(basedir, 'app.db')
   
    MAIL_SERVER = os.environ.get('MAIL_SERVER')
    MAIL_PORT = int(os.environ.get('MAIL_PORT') or 25)

Spend lots of time and effort with this python project. I hope this can be of use to anyone.

https://github.com/irfanbroo/Netwarden

What my project does

What it does is basically captures live
network traffic using Wireshark, analyzing packets for suspicious activity such as malicious DNS queries, potential SYN scans,, and unusually large packets. By integrating Nmap, It also performs vulnerability scans to assess the security of networked systems, helping detect potential threats. I also added netcat, nmap arm spoofing detection etc.

Target audience

This is targeted mainly for security enthusiasts for those people who wants to check their network for any malicious activities

Comparison

I tried to integrate all the features I can find into this one script which can save the hassle of using different services to check for different attacks and malicious activities


I would really appreciate any contributions or help regarding optimising the code further and making it more cleaner. Thanks 👍🏻

Google Search introduced JavaScript

Has anyone figured out how to get data from the first page of Google search results now? Selenium?
BeautifulSoup seemed to do the job just fine (like getting headers of search results).
Now apparently a bare minimum would be Selenium to mimic user interface interaction.
But it still don't seem to accomplish that.
Although this is introduced:
driver.implicitly_wait(30)
and
profile.set_preference("javascript.enabled", True)

Overall it looks something like
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0")
profile.set_preference("javascript.enabled", True)
broswer = webdriver.Firefox(profile)
broswer.get('https://Google.xyz xyz xyz')
driver.implicitly_wait(1000)

soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source,'html.parser')
print(soup)

Is that suffice? Or supposed to be suffice?

Lost $25k usd and access to my web app

I have a Django Web Application built on 5.0.6

I was "partnered" with an individual. This individual more or less has stripped me of a little over $25,000 in revenue, has added another developer to the hosting platform (DigitalOcean).

I reached out to DigitalOcean explaining the situation and they said their was nothing they could do without details I don't have access to.

Lesson learned the hard way.

I spent around 9 months building this project from nothing. I have reached out to a lawyer and the lawyer has verified that I do own 100% of it. (I just wanted to be certain.)

I've exhausted every method I know to get administrative access back but I've ran out of options. I created a script in one of the app.py files to create a new user and promote them to superuser. The new developer turned off autodeploy from my repo so I cant modify it the actual django app that is running anymore.

How can I create an admin account without console access?

What should I do?

I've tried everything I know.

Please help.

Lawyer said to go ahead and file a DMCA Claim to DO. Lawyer will contacting the parties in the AM. I appreciate everyone's

Super Simple Python From Anywhere Task Runner

https://github.com/Sinjhin/scripts

What my project does

I whipped this up real quick for myself.

Seems pretty powerful. After I was done I took a brief look around realizing I could have just used someone else's tool and didn't immediately see anything like this. It's a bit opinionated, but essentially lets you use python scripts from a directory from anywhere on your computer. Could replace bash/zsh if you wanted.

After setup, you make a python file. Add a Poe task to pyproject.toml and then you can do `p <poe_task>` from anywhere. Has an example of getting different location relative to where the script was ran. Also has an `hp` command to get into a set conda venv and run a Poetry command within that scripts dir like `hp add torch`.

Could be expanded on a lot actually.

Target audience

Anyone who finds themselves constantly writing little utility functions to use around their computer and needing a quick way to run them from anywhere.

Comparison

I looked briefly (after the fact) and saw things like Invoke or Fabric, but I am not sure that they handle venv switching.

Django Channels: Asynchronous Magic for Real-Time Applications 🚀

Ever wondered how to build real-time features like chat applications, notifications, or live updates in your Django project? Django Channels makes it possible by bringing asynchronous capabilities to Django.

I’ve been working on this Django-Channels repository to make it easier for developers to understand and implement these real-time features. 🎯

Terminal based Python debuggers

Are there any TUI python debuggers? I found a couple hobby projects but they seem WIP/unmaintained.

Ideally, it should replicate vscode debugger like being able to watch expressions etc.

Day 2: Building Expense Tracker App

Hey everyone 👋


I'm currently working on an Expense Tracker App to learn how to display data on graphs using Chart.js. It's been a fun project so far, and I've made a few updates:

1. User-friendly interface: I focused on creating a more intuitive experience to keep users engaged.
2. Dismissible messages: Users are now better informed about their post progress with helpful notifications.
3. Robust error handling: Errors are now handled gracefully, preventing any app crashes.
4. Data persistence: Users won’t have to re-enter data when they encounter an error — it's saved for them!

This project has been a great opportunity to focus more on UI/UX instead of my usual backend-heavy approach, and I’ve learned a lot in the process.

View project on GitHub

If you're new to Django or looking for a fun project, why not give this a try? You’ll find a full description in the repo.

I have tried listening on my laptops hotspot interface (192.168.137.1) and all interfaces (0.0.0.0) when listening on all interfaces my hotspot interface does not appear in the list. Is there a way to resolve this? Would this application work on the hotspot from a Raspberry Pi?
