Coding With Python :: Learn API Basics to Grab Data with Python\r
\r
This is a basic introduction to using APIs. APIs are the glue that keep a lot of web applications running and thriving. Without APIs much of the internet services you love might not even exist!\r
\r
APIs are easy way to connect with other websites & web services to use their data to make your site or application even better. This simple tutorial gives you the basics of how you can access this data and use it. If you want to know if a website has an api, just search Facebook API or Twitter API or Foursquare API on google. Some APIs are easy to use (like Locus API which we use in this video) some are more complicated (Facebooks API is more complicated than Locus). More about APIs: \r

If you want to learn more about using APIs with Django, learn at for just $25/month. We apply what we learn here into a Django web application in the GeoLocator project.\r

The Try Django Tutorial Series is designed to help you get used to using Django in building a basic landing page (also known as splash page or MVP landing page) so you can collect data from potential users. Collecting this data will prove as verification (or validation) that your project is worth building. Furthermore, we also show you how to implement a Paypal Button so you can also accept payments. \r

Django is awesome and very simple to get started. Step-by-step tutorials are to help you understand the workflow, get you started doing something real, then it is our goal to have you asking questions. Why did I do X? or How would I do Y? These are questions you wouldnt know to ask otherwise. Questions, after all, lead to answers.\r
