Python Django Crash Course
Why Stack Overflow recommends it
Stack Overflow users who are new to Django follow it as a step-by-step tutorial, then ask questions when their setup (MySQL, phpMyAdmin, XAMPP, models and views) diverges from the video.

What it is
A one-hour crash course from Traversy Media that builds a Django app from scratch using MySQL. It covers the framework's advantages, the MTV pattern, virtual environments, the core Django files, and a simple posts site.

Okay so I am a new learner and am following a tutorial [this video] My problem is that the last part of that video shows a posting site's posts when you click the linking to the post: Page not found (404) Request Method: GET Request URL: [LINK] Using the URLconf defined in djangoproject1.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order: [name='index'] details/<int:id>/ [name='details'] admin/ posts/ [name='index'] posts/ details/<int:id>/ [name='details'] The current path, posts/details/1>/, didn't match any of these.

I am following this [this video] tutorial to build a Django app with MySQL. I am using XAMPP-VM for Mac. I set up my Database settings for Django as so: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 'NAME': 'djangoproject', 'USER': 'root', 'PASSWORD': '', 'HOST': 'localhost', 'PORT': '8080', } } And I have started MySQL on XAMPP but when I run python manage.py migrate I get: django.db.utils.OperationalError: (2002, "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)") Thank you for your help!
