Tutorial Wagtail Version: 2.x
In this one hour workshop we are going to create a new Wagtail website from scratch, create a blog, and deploy it to the internet using Netlify (free!)
This is a different type of tutorial. In this Learn Wagtail lesson we'll be creating a brand new Wagtail website, getting setup with virtualenv, creating a blog, and deploying the website to the internet using a service called Netlify.
All the written instructions for this workshop can be found on the official Wagtail.io Blog. There's lots of good stuff in there, so make sure you head over there if you're interested in the written version of this workshop.
All the code for this workshop can be found in a public repo https://github.com/wagtail/workshop
And in this video I'll just be covering all the same steps that you'll read from the Wagtail Workshop repo. So if videos aren't you thing, and long articles aren't you thing... there's a straight-to-the-point repo with all the commands!
There's not much to look at, but remember this site was made from scratch and deployed to Netlify in less than an hour. Take a final look at the website here: https://wagtailworkshop.netlify.com
