# https://ahorrapp.store

In this project I wanted to do on my own every part of our final project ([Ahorrapp](https://github.com/sahinmeric/Ahorrapp)) of Holberton Schools Uruguay. The objective is to refactor and improve backend code, create a new frontend with Django MVT and deploy the project on AWS.  

### During this process I've learnt;  

 * Creating AWS EC2 Linux instance and configuring inbound & outbound security rules.

 * Configuring users, permissions and roles with AWS IAM. 

 * Connecting to instance with SSH and private key.  

 * Creating and activating a virtual environment for app.

 * Installing requirements of a project.  

 * Using VIM to edit files.  

 * Using environment variables.

 * Creating AWS RDS Postgres instance within same VPC with EC2 instance and configuring inbound & outbound security rules. 

 * Using Django’s WSGIServer in Development.

 * Installing and configuring Gunicorn to replace WSGIServer of Django.

 * Installing and configuring Nginx to serve the app to the end users.

 * Configuring Nginx and Django to serve static files of the project.

 * Linking to a Domain.

 * Turning on HTTPS with SSL certificate.

 * Being patient xD

 


### TODOs 

 * TODO: Adding search product feature

 * TODO: Refactoring html files

 * TODO: Refactoring main.js

 * TODO: Refactoring list.js

 * TODO: Activating weekly price update

 * TODO: Getting rid of unnecesarry css libraries.

 * TODO: Redirecting HTTP to HTTPS

 * TODO: Setting the Referrer-Policy Header

 * TODO: Adding a Content-Security-Policy (CSP) Header  


  

### Changelog Summary  

* Backend deployment changed with AWS EC2 Linux instance with NGINX and Gunicorn.

* Database type changed to Postgres and created on AWS RDS instance.

* Frontend recreated with Django MVT (model, view, template) design pattern in order to reduce usage of an extra server. A seperate frontend server with Node.js and Nuxt.js is now obsolete.

* Domain name - Namecheap and SSL certificate is done via CertBot.
