📖 What we learned

Redis, Django RQ and decouped tasks

We used the django-rq package to create a decouped task for send the mark certification to the student via email. We learned about how use it with Redis and how that feature makes an impact in the application performance.

PDF generation with Django templates

To send the mark certification, we generate a PDF with that information using Django templates for that. We learned how customize it, adding our signature and own style with CSS.

Custom Django template tags

To enhance our workflow, we develop some custom Django template tags to use it in the development process, making our job more understandable and clean.
