On this episode, we discuss Django’s front door, URLs. We talk about what URLs are, how to build them in Django, and the functions Django provides to work with URLs. Listen at djangoriffs.com. What’s a URL? A URL is a Uniform Resource Locator. It is the full address that goes into a browser. Consider https://www.mattlayman.com/django-riffs/. Here are the parts: Scheme, https:// Domain name: Top Level Domain (TLD), com Domain, mattlayman Subdomain, www Path or route, /django-riffs/ URLconf Every route for Django to handle goes into a URL configuration, URLconf for short and in the documentation.
