The bootstrap flow

  • Django bootstrapper manage.py uses core/settings.py as the main configuration file
  • core/settings.py loads the app magic from .env file
  • Redirect the guest users to Login page
  • Unlock the pages served by app node for authenticated users

✨ Deployment

The app is provided with a basic configuration to be executed in Docker, Gunicorn, and Waitress.


Gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX.

Waitress (Gunicorn equivalent for Windows) is meant to be a production-quality pure-Python WSGI server with very acceptable performance. It has no dependencies except ones that live in the Python standard library.

Install using pip

$ pip install waitress

Start the app using waitress-serve

$ waitress-serve --port=8001 core.wsgi:application
