RestKit-n-Django-Sample

This is a project created as a playground to become more familiar various frameworks. Primarily the following:

• RestKit
• Django
• Django REST Framework

I've been using:

• Python 3.4
• Xcode 7.3.1 (Swift 1.2)
• Check requirement.txt to find out exactly which django versions.
• Check Podfile.lock to find out exactly which iOS library versions.

Get stuff up and running:

1. Create the virtual environment
2. Clone this repo
3. Run the django server
4. Run the iOS app

A good example of changes that must be performed in order to change a model, all the way from back-end to the front-end, is shown in 6fa5fc46a19b603005be505b967747eef2cd672b, where created and modified is added to the Quote-model.
