Sandbox and Lab Environment

Django, like any other framework, is best learned through hands-on practice.

Try this example using our editor:

<ul>
  {% for x in mymembers %}
    <li>{{ x.firstname }}</li>
  {% endfor %}
</ul>

If you want to explore more and host your project, we have a feature called Spaces that allows you to build, test and deploy Django applications for free.

Here you get a secure sandbox environment called Spaces, where you can practice Django code and test projects in real-time.

Spaces allow you to test, build, and deploy code. This includes a W3Schools subdomain, hosting, and secure SSL certificates.

Spaces require no installation and run directly in the browser.

Features include:

• Collaboration
• File navigator
• Terminal & log
• Package manager
• Database
• Environment manager
• Analytics
