How nitishdotdot/django_taapman works
Taapman is a Django weather-and-place information site. A visitor submits a location through the home page; the routed index view geocodes it, fetches country details and a temperature forecast, then renders the results. Separate routes render personal and developer information pages. The README also describes signup and authenticated access, and login/signup templates exist, but the sampled URL configuration and views do not show their runtime flow; those links are therefore omitted. The weather view’s external API calls are confirmed in source.
Main entry points: views.py Weather view · urls.py URL routing · models.py User info model · index.html Weather results page
