Coding Assignments Due	Vincent Blog Assignment Description: We are using the Vincent text to get a quick introduction to building Django applications. Chapter 1 addresses installation of tools and getting started. Because we will not be using the exact toolset as is used in the Vincent book, I have created a tutorial video for you to play while covering Chapter 1. There are separate versions available for Windows and macOS. The tutorial content for this assignment is presented in Chapter 6. This will be the work that you will submit. Nevertheless, I recommend that you do at least some of the work of the tutorials presented in Chapters 2 through 5. Doing all 4 of them is probably too repetitive. But, you be the judge. Then, Chapter 6 is the main event. You will be submitting the project from Chapter 6 as your work for this assignment. PLEASE NOTE: I am not expecting you to deploy any of these Vincent book tutorials.
