Love it @amakarudze 😸 I think you did a great job at producing something where people can see the potential of Wagtail without it being super long.
Aside from my comments, I’d suggest to:
- Make sure there’s no further changes needed to push this to PythonAnywhere? I’m surprised it’d all "just work" there, but maybe it’s me.
- Update how the blog posts are fetched to only show live blog pages, and show them ordered by date.
And as quick wins that aren’t really needed but would be cool to demo:
- Adding the Wagtail userbar. Nice little feature.
- Perhaps making use of
parent_page_typesorsubpage_types. This helps people understand the "child" pages quite a bit.
As a follow-up after this is merged, I’d love to know what you think of adding even more sections.

@thibaudcolas I addressed most of these points except for the quick wins that aren't really needed. They could be added later on as follow up. |

Great work and thank you for this! I think it’ll be really helpful for folks to get a headstart with how to use Wagtail CMS :)
I added a few comments and have an extra suggestion: I think it would be helpful if you added a reminder at the beginning to run python manage.py runserver, run migrations and create a superuser for Wagtail admin login so that people know how to get the project running - or so that it's clear that to run the project you need to follow some of the same steps as in the main tutorial.
