I'd love to know how you're running Django and React together. I've been trying to figure out how to make that combo work in a mono-repo, and I'm definitely missing something. Any advice?
I just watched 8 hours of Django videos yesterday, and 4 hours of that was a Django + React tutorial. It covers in great detail the CRU from a CRUD, but you'll need additional videos to cover deployment on elastic beanstalk or ec2+elb, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHhQRHE8IR8
Basically his tutorial was to put the react project inside the django project, and depending on which parts you're modifying and how your testing, he has a special static collection script that builds the react portion and copies the static files up into the Django parent project folders.
I'm also struggling a lot with django, react and the whole asset pipeline. On the other hand, frameworks like rails and laravel have it all figured out for you.
