Using AngularJS and Django Rest Framework

Sunday, 16 August 2015

AngularJS and Django are the perfect couple, particulary when you introduce Restangular and Django REST Framework.

I’m open-sourcing a project which harnesses this stack, my RC flight logging app. It’s in its infancy, but I have some good ideas for it which I will soon share.

flyguy - AngularJS Javascript client. Uses Restangular to handle REST resources. Routed using Angular UI router. JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for authentication. Jasmine test suite. Bootstrap styling. Currently deployed to Github pages.

flyguy-service - Django Rest API service. Uses Django REST Framework. Currently running an instance via Dokku with a Postgresql database.

See app below, new user registration coming soon. http://ademuk.github.io/flyguy
