This brings back memories. I remember going through the course many years ago, but I got busy with other projects and quit about 25% through. I'm glad it is still out there and still considered a good source.
- sammorrowdrums 8y agoYeah if you've gone through a good chunk maybe complete it. I really hate knowing how easy it is to do some queries and struggling to use the Django ORM to achieve what I could write in minutes - but for maintainability I hate dropping down to SQL in that context. For a fun advanced tutorial, have a go at pivot tables with crosstab using the docs. I've used it for analytics queries to chart categories as headings, with complex aggregations etc. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/tablefunc.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/tablefunc.html Window functions are another classic https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/tutorial-window.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/tutorial-window.html In general working with SQL and gradually solving the problems you have learning as you go is excellent. If you want faster than that there probably are courses but I really do rate their docs. Postgres is great.
