POLLING WEBSITE
Introduction

• Django polling website is a full featured polling platform . You have to


register in this app to show the polls and to vote. If you already voted you
can not vote again. Only the owner of a poll can add poll , edit poll,
update poll, delete poll , add choice, update choice, delete choice and end
a poll. If a poll is ended it can not be voted. Ended poll only shows user
the final result of the poll. .

• The main goal of the project is to create a simple polling platform where
user can vote their choices content , interact with polls and manage their
personal accounts.

❖ Technologies Used:
• Backend: Django (Python framework)
• Frontend: HTML, CSS
• Database: SQLite (or PostgreSQL for production)
• Authentication: Django’s built-in authentication system
• Deployment: Heroku or any other hosting platform (for live deployment)

❖ Features and functions:

• User Authentication:
Users can register, log in, and manage their profiles. The authentication system
leverages Django’s built-in tools for user management, including password hashing
and session management.

• Vote Section:
Registered users can leave their vote on polls . This fosters interaction and
community engagement. Admins can modify and delete polls.

• Admin Panel:

The Django admin interface is used for editing polls , adding choices, and
dates. Admins can add, edit, or delete content, and manage user permissions.

❖ Poll Management:
• Create Polls: Logged-in users can create polls with questions and options.
• View Polls: All users can view polls sorted by date, category, or
popularity.
• Update Polls: Authors can edit their own polls.
• Delete Polls: Authors can delete their own polls.
• Vote on Polls: Users can vote once on active polls.
• Poll Results: Users can view poll results after voting or poll closure.
• Pagination: Poll lists are paginated for easier navigation.

❖ System Design
• Django MVC (Model-View-Controller) Architecture:
Django follows the MVT (Model-View-Template) architecture, which separates
the business logic, user interface, and data models:
• Model: Defines the structure of the data (e.g., BlogPost, Comment, User).
• View: Handles user interaction and contains the logic for displaying data.
• Template: HTML files responsible for the layout of pages, incorporating
dynamic data passed from views.

Conclusion
The Django-powered polling website offers a robust platform for creating and managing
polls with user authentication and easy poll management. Future improvements will
enhance its functionality and user experience.
