a browser. As most website server-side code handles requests and responses in similar ways, this will help you understand what you need to do when writing most of your own code.</p> <figure class="table-container"> <table> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">Prerequisites:</th> <td>A basic understanding of what a web server is.</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Objective:</th> <td>To understand client-server interactions in a dynamic website, and in particular what operations need to be performed by server-side code.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </figure> <p>There is no real code in the discussion because we haven't yet chosen a web framework to use to write our code! This discussion is however still very relevant, because the described behavior must be implemented by your server-side code, irrespective of which programming language or web framework you select.</p> </div> <section aria-labelledby="web_servers_and_http_a_primer"> <h2 id="web_servers_and_http_a_primer"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#web_servers_and_http_a_primer">Web servers and HTTP (a primer)</a></h2> <div class="section-content"> <p>Web browsers communicate with <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Common_questions/Web_mechanics/What_is_a_web_server?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">web servers</a> using the <strong>H</strong>yper<strong>T</strong>ext <strong>T</strong>ransfer <strong>P</strong>rotocol (<a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">HTTP</a>). When you click a link on a web page, submit a form, or run a search, the browser sends an <em>HTTP Request</em> to the server.</p> <p>This request includes:</p> <ul> <li><p>A URL identifying the target server and resource (e.g. an HTML file, a particular data point on the server, or a tool to run).</p></li> <li><p>A method that defines the required action (for example, to get a file or to save or update some data). The different methods/verbs and their associated actions are listed below:</p> <ul> <li><code>GET</code>: Get a specific resource (e.g. an HTML file containing information about a product, or a list of products).</li> <li><code>POST</code>: Create a new resource (e.g. add a new article to a wiki, add a new contact to a database).</li> <li><code>HEAD</code>: Get the metadata information about a specific resource without getting the body like <code>GET</code> would. You might for example use a <code>HEAD</code> request to find out the last time a resource was updated, and then only use the (more "expensive") <code>GET</code> request to download the resource if it has changed.</li> <li><code>PUT</code>: Update an existing resource (or create a new one if it doesn't exist).</li> <li><code>DELETE</code>: Delete the specified resource.</li> <li><code>TRACE</code>, <code>OPTIONS</code>, <code>CONNECT</code>, <code>PATCH</code>: These verbs are for less common/advanced tasks, so we won't cover them here.</li> </ul></li> <li><p>Additional information can be encoded with the request (for example, HTML form data). Information can be encoded as:</p> <ul> <li>URL parameters: <code>GET</code> requests encode data in the URL sent to the server by adding name/value pairs onto the end of it — for example <code>http://example.com?name=Fred&amp;age=11</code>. You always have a question mark (<code>?</code>) separating the rest of the URL from the URL parameters, an equals sign (<code>=</code>) separating each name from its associated value, and an ampersand (<code>&amp;</code>) separating each pair. URL parameters are inherently "insecure" as they can be changed by users and then resubmitted. As a result URL parameters/<code>GET</code> requests are not used for requests that update data on the server.</li> <li><code>POST</code> data. <code>POST</code> requests add new resources, the data for which is encoded within the request body.</li> <li>Client-side cookies. Cookies contain session data about the client, including keys that the server can use to determine their login status and permissions/accesses to resources.</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>Web servers wait for client request messages, process them when they arrive, and reply to the web browser with an HTTP response message. The response contains an <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">HTTP Response status code</a> indicating whether or not the request succeeded (e.g., <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/200?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB"><code>200 OK</code></a> for success, <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/404?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB"><code>404 Not Found</code></a> if the resource cannot be found, <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/403?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB"><code>403 Forbidden</code></a> if the user isn't authorized to see the resource, etc.). The body of the response to a successful <code>GET</code> request contains the requested resource.</p> <p>When an HTML page is returned, it is rendered by the web browser. As part of processing, the browser may discover links to other resources (e.g. an HTML page usually references JavaScript and CSS files), and will send separate HTTP Requests to download these files.</p> <p>Both static and dynamic websites (discussed in the following sections) use exactly the same communication protocol/patterns.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="get_requestresponse_example"> <h3 id="get_requestresponse_example"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#get_requestresponse_example">GET request/response example</a></h3> <div class="section-content"> <p>You can make a simple <code>GET</code> request by clicking on a link or searching on a site (like a search engine homepage).

So for example if you have a page about a product at <code>/static/my-product1.html</code>, this same page will be returned to every user. If you add another similar product to your site you will need to add another page (e.g. <code>my-product2.html</code>) and so on. This can start to get really inefficient — what happens when you get to thousands of product pages? You would repeat a lot of code across each page (the basic page template, structure, etc.), and if you wanted to change anything about the page structure — like add a new "related products" section for example — then you'd have to change every page individually.</p> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> Static sites are excellent when you have a small number of pages and you want to send the same content to every user. However they can have a significant cost to maintain as the number of pages becomes larger.</p> </div> <p>Let's recap on how this works, by looking again at the static site architecture diagram we looked at in the last article.</p> <p><img src="/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview/basic_static_app_server.png" alt="A simplified diagram of a static web server." width="960" height="267" loading="lazy"></p> <p>When a user wants to navigate to a page, the browser sends an HTTP <code>GET</code> request specifying the URL of its HTML page. The server retrieves the requested document from its file system and returns an HTTP response containing the document and an <a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB">HTTP Response status code</a> of <code>200 OK</code> (indicating success). The server might return a different status code, for example <code>404 Not Found</code> if the file is not present on the server, or <code>301 Moved Permanently</code> if the file exists but has been redirected to a different location.</p> <p>The server for a static site will only ever need to process GET requests, because the server doesn't store any modifiable data. It also doesn't change its responses based on HTTP Request data (e.g. URL parameters or cookies).</p> <p>Understanding how static sites work is nevertheless useful when learning server-side programming, because dynamic sites handle requests for static files (CSS, JavaScript, static images, etc.) in exactly the same way.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="dynamic_sites"> <h2 id="dynamic_sites"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#dynamic_sites">Dynamic sites</a></h2> <div class="section-content"> <p>A <em>dynamic site</em> is one that can generate and return content based on the specific request URL and data (rather than always returning the same hard-coded file for a particular URL). Using the example of a product site, the server would store product "data" in a database rather than individual HTML files. When receiving an HTTP <code>GET</code> Request for a product, the server determines the product ID, fetches the data from the database, and then constructs the HTML page for the response by inserting the data into an HTML template. This has major advantages over a static site:</p> <p>Using a database allows the product information to be stored efficiently in an easily extensible, modifiable, and searchable way.</p> <p>Using HTML templates makes it very easy to change the HTML structure, because this only needs to be done in one place, in a single template, and not across potentially thousands of static pages.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="anatomy_of_a_dynamic_request"> <h3 id="anatomy_of_a_dynamic_request"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#anatomy_of_a_dynamic_request">Anatomy of a dynamic request</a></h3> <div class="section-content"> <p>This section provides a step-by-step overview of the "dynamic" HTTP request and response cycle, building on what we looked at in the last article with much more detail. In order to "keep things real" we'll use the context of a sports-team manager website where a coach can select their team name and team size in an HTML form and get back a suggested "best lineup" for their next game.</p> <p>The diagram below shows the main elements of the "team coach" website, along with numbered labels for the sequence of operations when the coach accesses their "best team" list. The parts of the site that make it dynamic are the <em>Web Application</em> (this is how we will refer to the server-side code that processes HTTP requests and returns HTTP responses), the <em>Database</em>, which contains information about players, teams, coaches and their relationships, and the <em>HTML Templates</em>.</p> <p><img src="/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview/web_application_with_html_and_steps.png" alt="This is a diagram of a simple web server with step numbers for each of step of the client-server interaction." width="1226" height="584" loading="lazy"></p> <p>After the coach submits the form with the team name and number of players, the sequence of operations is:</p> <ol> <li>The web browser creates an HTTP <code>GET</code> request to the server using the base URL for the resource (<code>/best</code>) and encoding the team and player number either as URL parameters (e.g. <code>/best?team=my_team_name&amp;show=11</code>) or as part of the URL pattern (e.g. <code>/best/my_team_name/11/</code>). A <code>GET</code> request is used because the request is only fetching data (not modifying data).</li> <li>The <em>Web Server</em> detects that the request is "dynamic" and forwards it to the <em>Web Application</em> for processing (the web server determines how to handle different URLs based on pattern matching rules defined in its configuration).</li> <li>The <em>Web Application</em> identifies that the <em>intention</em> of the request is to get the "best team list" based on the URL (<code>/best/</code>) and finds out the required team name and number of players from the URL. The <em>Web Application</em> then gets the required information from the database (using additional "internal" parameters to define which players are "best", and possibly also getting the identity of the logged in coach from a client-side cookie).</li> <li>The <em>Web Application</em> dynamically creates an HTML page by putting the data (from the <em>Database</em>) into placeholders inside an HTML template.</li> <li>The <em>Web Application</em> returns the generated HTML to the web browser (via the <em>Web Server</em>), along with an HTTP status code of 200 ("success"). If anything prevents the HTML from being returned then the <em>Web Application</em> will return another code — for example "404" to indicate that the team does not exist.</li> <li>The Web Browser will then start to process the returned HTML, sending separate requests to get any other CSS or JavaScript files that it references (see step 7).</li> <li>The Web Server loads static files from the file system and returns them to the browser directly (again, correct file handling is based on configuration rules and URL pattern matching).</li> </ol> <p>An operation to update a record in the database would be handled similarly, except that like any database update, the HTTP request from the browser should be encoded as a <code>POST</code> request.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="doing_other_work"> <h3 id="doing_other_work"><a href="https://developer-mozilla-org.translate.goog/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/First_steps/Client-Server_overview?_x_tr_sl=pl&amp;_x_tr_tl=fr&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB#doing_other_work">Doing other work</a></h3> <div class="section-content"> <p>A <em>Web Application's</em> job is to receive HTTP requests and return HTTP responses.

This makes it easier to keep the code associated with each type of resource separate. It also has benefits in terms of maintenance, because you can change the URL used to deliver a particular feature in one place, without having to change the handler function.</p> <p>For example, consider the following Django (Python) code that maps two URL patterns to two view functions. The first pattern ensures that an HTTP request with a resource URL of <code>/best</code> will be passed to a function named <code>index()</code> in the <code>views</code> module. A request that has the pattern <code>/best/junior</code>, will instead be passed to the <code>junior()</code> view function.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code># file: best/urls.py # from django.conf.urls import url from . import views urlpatterns = [ # example: /best/ url(r'^$', views.index), # example: /best/junior/ url(r'^junior/$', views.junior), ] </code></pre> </div> <div class="notecard note"> <p><strong>Note:</strong> The first parameters in the <code>url()</code> functions may look a bit odd (e.g. <code>r'^junior/$'</code>) because they use a pattern matching technique called "regular expressions" (RegEx, or RE). You don't need to know how regular expressions work at this point, other than that they allow us to match patterns in the URL (rather than the hard coded values above) and use them as parameters in our view functions. As an example, a really simple RegEx might say "match a single uppercase letter, followed by between 4 and 7 lower case letters."</p> </div> <p>The web framework also makes it easy for a view function to fetch information from the database. The structure of our data is defined in models, which are Python classes that define the fields to be stored in the underlying database. If we have a model named <em>Team</em> with a field of "<em>team_type</em>" then we can use a simple query syntax to get back all teams that have a particular type.</p> <p>The example below gets a list of all teams that have the exact (case sensitive) <code>team_type</code> of "junior" — note the format: field name (<code>team_type</code>) followed by double underscore, and then the type of match to use (in this case <code>exact</code>). There are many other types of matches and we can daisy chain them. We can also control the order and the number of results returned.</p> <div class="code-example"> <div class="example-header"> <span class="language-name">python</span> </div> <pre class="brush: python notranslate"><code>#best/views.py from django.shortcuts import render from .models import Team def junior(request): list_teams = Team.objects.filter(team_type__exact="junior") context = {'list': list_teams} return render(request, 'best/index.html', context) </code></pre> </div> <p>After the <code>junior()</code> function gets the list of junior teams, it calls the <code>render()</code> function, passing the original <code>HttpRequest</code>, an HTML template, and a "context" object defining the information to be included in the template. The <code>render()</code> function is a convenience function that generates HTML using a context and an HTML template, and returns it in an <code>HttpResponse</code> object.</p> <p>Obviously web frameworks can help you with a lot of other tasks. We discuss a lot more benefits and some popular web framework choices in the next article.</p> </div> </section> <section aria-labelledby="summary"> <h2 id="summary"><a

When you click a link on a web page, submit a form, or run a search, the browser sends an <em>HTTP Request</em> to the server.</p>\n<p>This request includes:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>A URL identifying the target server and resource (e.g. an HTML file, a particular data point on the server, or a tool to run).</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>A method that defines the required action (for example, to get a file or to save or update some data). The different methods/verbs and their associated actions are listed below:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>GET</code>: Get a specific resource (e.g. an HTML file containing information about a product, or a list of products).</li>\n<li><code>POST</code>: Create a new resource (e.g. add a new article to a wiki, add a new contact to a database).</li>\n<li><code>HEAD</code>: Get the metadata information about a specific resource without getting the body like <code>GET</code> would. You might for example use a <code>HEAD</code> request to find out the last time a resource was updated, and then only use the (more \"expensive\") <code>GET</code> request to download the resource if it has changed.</li>\n<li><code>PUT</code>: Update an existing resource (or create a new one if it doesn't exist).</li>\n<li><code>DELETE</code>: Delete the specified resource.</li>\n<li><code>TRACE</code>, <code>OPTIONS</code>, <code>CONNECT</code>, <code>PATCH</code>: These verbs are for less common/advanced tasks, so we won't cover them here.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Additional information can be encoded with the request (for example, HTML form data). Information can be encoded as:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>URL parameters: <code>GET</code> requests encode data in the URL sent to the server by adding name/value pairs onto the end of it — for example <code>http://example.com?name=Fred&amp;age=11</code>. You always have a question mark (<code>?</code>) separating the rest of the URL from the URL parameters, an equals sign (<code>=</code>) separating each name from its associated value, and an ampersand (<code>&amp;</code>) separating each pair. URL parameters are inherently \"insecure\" as they can be changed by users and then resubmitted. As a result URL parameters/<code>GET</code> requests are not used for requests that update data on the server.</li>\n<li><code>POST</code> data. <code>POST</code> requests add new resources, the data for which is encoded within the request body.</li>\n<li>Client-side cookies. Cookies contain session data about the client, including keys that the server can use to determine their login status and permissions/accesses to resources.</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Web servers wait for client request messages, process them when they arrive, and reply to the web browser with an HTTP response message. The response contains an <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status\">HTTP Response status code</a> indicating whether or not the request succeeded (e.g., <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/200\"><code>200 OK</code></a> for success, <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/404\"><code>404 Not Found</code></a> if the resource cannot be found, <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/403\"><code>403 Forbidden</code></a> if the user isn't authorized to see the resource, etc.). The body of the response to a successful <code>GET</code> request contains the requested resource.</p>\n<p>When an HTML page is returned, it is rendered by the web browser. As part of processing, the browser may discover links to other resources (e.g. an HTML page usually references JavaScript and CSS files), and will send separate HTTP Requests to download these files.</p>\n<p>Both static and dynamic websites (discussed in the following sections) use exactly the same communication protocol/patterns.</p>"}},{"type":"prose","value":{"id":"get_requestresponse_example","title":"GET request/response example","isH3":true,"content":"<p>You can make a simple <code>GET</code> request by clicking on a link or searching on a site (like a search engine homepage).

So for example if you have a page about a product at <code>/static/my-product1.html</code>, this same page will be returned to every user. If you add another similar product to your site you will need to add another page (e.g. <code>my-product2.html</code>) and so on. This can start to get really inefficient — what happens when you get to thousands of product pages? You would repeat a lot of code across each page (the basic page template, structure, etc.), and if you wanted to change anything about the page structure — like add a new \"related products\" section for example — then you'd have to change every page individually.</p>\n<div class=\"notecard note\">\n<p><strong>Note:</strong>\nStatic sites are excellent when you have a small number of pages and you want to send the same content to every user.

The server might return a different status code, for example <code>404 Not Found</code> if the file is not present on the server, or <code>301 Moved Permanently</code> if the file exists but has been redirected to a different location.</p>\n<p>The server for a static site will only ever need to process GET requests, because the server doesn't store any modifiable data. It also doesn't change its responses based on HTTP Request data (e.g. URL parameters or cookies).</p>\n<p>Understanding how static sites work is nevertheless useful when learning server-side programming, because dynamic sites handle requests for static files (CSS, JavaScript, static images, etc.) in exactly the same way.</p>"}},{"type":"prose","value":{"id":"dynamic_sites","title":"Dynamic sites","isH3":false,"content":"<p>A <em>dynamic site</em> is one that can generate and return content based on the specific request URL and data (rather than always returning the same hard-coded file for a particular URL).

A <code>GET</code> request is used because the request is only fetching data (not modifying data).</li>\n<li>The <em>Web Server</em> detects that the request is \"dynamic\" and forwards it to the <em>Web Application</em> for processing (the web server determines how to handle different URLs based on pattern matching rules defined in its configuration).</li>\n<li>The <em>Web Application</em> identifies that the <em>intention</em> of the request is to get the \"best team list\" based on the URL (<code>/best/</code>) and finds out the required team name and number of players from the URL. The <em>Web Application</em> then gets the required information from the database (using additional \"internal\" parameters to define which players are \"best\", and possibly also getting the identity of the logged in coach from a client-side cookie).</li>\n<li>The <em>Web Application</em> dynamically creates an HTML page by putting the data (from the <em>Database</em>) into placeholders inside an HTML template.</li>\n<li>The <em>Web Application</em> returns the generated HTML to the web browser (via the <em>Web Server</em>), along with an HTTP status code of 200 (\"success\"). If anything prevents the HTML from being returned then the <em>Web Application</em> will return another code — for example \"404\" to indicate that the team does not exist.</li>\n<li>The Web Browser will then start to process the returned HTML, sending separate requests to get any other CSS or JavaScript files that it references (see step 7).</li>\n<li>The Web Server loads static files from the file system and returns them to the browser directly (again, correct file handling is based on configuration rules and URL pattern matching).</li>\n</ol>\n<p>An operation to update a record in the database would be handled similarly, except that like any database update, the HTTP request from the browser should be encoded as a <code>POST</code> request.</p>"}},{"type":"prose","value":{"id":"doing_other_work","title":"Doing other work","isH3":true,"content":"<p>A <em>Web Application's</em> job is to receive HTTP requests and return HTTP responses.

It can instead dynamically create and return other types of files (text, PDF, CSV, etc.) or even data (JSON, XML, etc.).</p>\n<p>This is especially relevant for websites that work by fetching content from the server using JavaScript and updating the page dynamically, rather than always loading a new page when new content is to be shown. See <a href=\"/en-US/docs/Learn/JavaScript/Client-side_web_APIs/Fetching_data\">Fetching data from the server</a> for more on the motivation for this approach, and what this model looks like from the client's point of view.</p>"}},{"type":"prose","value":{"id":"web_frameworks_simplify_server-side_web_programming","title":"Web frameworks simplify server-side web programming","isH3":false,"content":"<p>Server-side web frameworks make writing code to handle the operations described above much easier.</p>\n<p>One of the most important operations they perform is providing simple mechanisms to map URLs for different resources/pages to specific handler functions. This makes it easier to keep the code associated with each type of resource separate. It also has benefits in terms of maintenance, because you can change the URL used to deliver a particular feature in one place, without having to change the handler function.</p>\n<p>For example, consider the following Django (Python) code that maps two URL patterns to two view functions. The first pattern ensures that an HTTP request with a resource URL of <code>/best</code> will be passed to a function named <code>index()</code> in the <code>views</code> module. A request that has the pattern <code>/best/junior</code>, will instead be passed to the <code>junior()</code> view function.</p>\n<div class=\"code-example\"><div class=\"example-header\"><span class=\"language-name\">python</span></div><pre class=\"brush: python notranslate\"><code># file: best/urls.py\n#\n\nfrom django.conf.urls import url\n\nfrom . import views\n\nurlpatterns = [\n # example: /best/\n url(r'^$', views.index),\n # example: /best/junior/\n url(r'^junior/$', views.junior),\n]\n</code></pre></div>\n<div class=\"notecard note\">\n<p><strong>Note:</strong>\nThe first parameters in the <code>url()</code> functions may look a bit odd (e.g. <code>r'^junior/$'</code>) because they use a pattern matching technique called \"regular expressions\" (RegEx, or RE). You don't need to know how regular expressions work at this point, other than that they allow us to match patterns in the URL (rather than the hard coded values above) and use them as parameters in our view functions. As an example, a really simple RegEx might say \"match a single uppercase letter, followed by between 4 and 7 lower case letters.\"</p>\n</div>\n<p>The web framework also makes it easy for a view function to fetch information from the database. The structure of our data is defined in models, which are Python classes that define the fields to be stored in the underlying database. If we have a model named <em>Team</em> with a field of \"<em>team_type</em>\" then we can use a simple query syntax to get back all teams that have a particular type.</p>\n<p>The example below gets a list of all teams that have the exact (case sensitive) <code>team_type</code> of \"junior\" — note the format: field name (<code>team_type</code>) followed by double underscore, and then the type of match to use (in this case <code>exact</code>). There are many other types of matches and we can daisy chain them. We can also control the order and the number of results returned.</p>\n<div class=\"code-example\"><div class=\"example-header\"><span class=\"language-name\">python</span></div><pre class=\"brush: python notranslate\"><code>#best/views.py\n\nfrom django.shortcuts import render\n\nfrom .models import Team\n\ndef junior(request):\n list_teams = Team.objects.filter(team_type__exact=\"junior\")\n context = {'list': list_teams}\n return render(request, 'best/index.html', context)\n</code></pre></div>\n<p>After the <code>junior()</code> function gets the list of junior teams, it calls the <code>render()</code> function, passing the original <code>HttpRequest</code>, an HTML template, and a \"context\" object defining the information to be included in the template. The <code>render()</code> function is a convenience function that generates HTML using a context and an HTML template, and returns it in an <code>HttpResponse</code> object.</p>\n<p>Obviously web frameworks can help you with a lot of other tasks.
