    Yuri, I will analyze the foreign Django code and carefully transfer the project from GitHub to your VPS: I will set up Python, the database, and SSL, check dependencies, and get the site up and running. I have 7 years of experience in web development and project maintenance, so I quickly identify issues in legacy code and bring the launch to a stable state. I can also help with access and transferring the admin panel. I am ready to discuss the details.

    Greetings! I have extensive experience in Python/Django development and server administration, as well as a CKAD (k8s) certification. I would be happy to help you understand the codebase of the current project and migrate it to a dedicated server.

    I am very familiar with the specified stack. To ensure a transparent migration process, we will link your GitHub repository to the new VPS. The code will be stored in the repository, while the website and database will be deployed directly on the server's infrastructure.

    Since all projects have different support requirements, I will offer you several options for organizing the infrastructure (IaC) and deployment:

    1. Deployment option: we can package the stack in an isolated Docker Compose or deploy a K3s-cluster.
    2. Website update method: we can set up a classic manual deployment, automate the process through Ansible scripts, or deploy a full CI/CD pipeline via GitHub Actions so that the website updates automatically with each push to the repository.
    + IAC - we will also document the entire infrastructure in Git.

    As part of the task, I will definitely configure the basic security of the server: I will configure the firewall, close unnecessary ports, set up SSH with keys, and issue an SSL certificate. At the end of the work, I will prepare a detailed text manual, where I will document the launch process step by step, and provide all access credentials (SSH, DB, Django admin panel). I suggest we briefly chat to discuss which server management format will be most convenient for you.

    Hello, Yuri! I am Nina — the manager of the developer Valentin. We have reviewed the project, and the stack is completely clear. Valentin will easily understand the existing code and will migrate the website to a VPS turnkey.

    Experience: Valentin regularly deploys Django/DRF projects on Linux servers (Ubuntu/Debian). He knows how to transfer data correctly without loss, set up the Nginx + Gunicorn + PostgreSQL stack, and secure all secrets (including keys for the gsheets API) in a safe .env environment.
    How we will work: First, Valentin will set up the project locally, check the correctness of migrations, the functionality of multilingual support (modeltranslation), and media generation through Imagekit. Only after that will he migrate everything to the VPS, configure static files, media, and a free SSL certificate (Let's Encrypt) with automatic renewal.
    Result: You will receive a consistently functioning website and full access (SSH, admin panel, database), arranged so that you can change passwords for security at any time.

    Timeline: 1–2 days.
    Cost: 350 PLN.
    Please let us know if the database on the old server is already populated and needs to be migrated, or if the site will be launched with a clean database? Message us privately, Valentin is ready to start today.

    Hello! I am ready to quickly address your Django project and efficiently migrate it to a VPS "turnkey". I have extensive experience in deploying and administering Linux servers for Python applications.

    What I will specifically do within the task:
    Code audit and preparation: Understanding someone else's code is not a problem. I will study the architecture, check the integration with Google Sheets (gsheets), media generation through Imagekit, and multilingual support (modeltranslation).

    Server environment setup: I will deploy a reliable stack for Django: Nginx + Gunicorn + PostgreSQL + Python 3.10+. I will configure the correct delivery of static and media files so that the TinyMCE editor and images work seamlessly.

    Security: I will install a free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt with auto-renewal. All sensitive data (API keys, database passwords, Django secrets) will be moved to .env.

    Transfer and documentation: I will provide you with a structured file with access credentials (SSH, Django Admin, DB). I will add a clear README to the repository with commands for quickly restarting services, updating code from GitHub, and managing migrations.

    Hello. The stack is clear: Python 3.10+, Django 4.2, DRF, TinyMCE, modeltranslation, ImageKit, gsheets. I have experience with all components, including working with other people's code (I always start by analyzing and documenting the current behavior before making changes).

    Approach. First, I clone the repository, set it up locally, go through migrations and dependencies — I document what exists and what is broken. At the same time, I compile a list of environment variables, file paths, and access to external services (gsheets API key, which is used for media). After that, I prepare the production VPS: Python, PostgreSQL or MySQL (depending on the current database), nginx, gunicorn, systemd units, Let’s Encrypt for SSL. Deployment — through git pull plus makefile or a simple fabric/ansible script to make it easy for you to repeat updates.

    After launch, I will provide complete documentation: where each config is, how to restart, how to view logs, how to update SSL. I will set up access so that you can revoke mine if necessary and continue working independently.

    One question for clarification. What is the current database (PostgreSQL/MySQL/SQLite) and are there already populated data that need to be migrated, or is the site being deployed from scratch?

    Winning proposal1 day40 USD

    Hello! I'm ready to take on the project. The stack (Django 4.2, DRF, Imagekit) is very familiar to me.
    I propose the following plan: I won't just blindly upload the project to the server. First, I will download your repository and conduct a thorough code audit. We will look for any errors, security vulnerabilities, or architectural issues.
    If the code is adequate, I will fix everything, deploy it on a VPS, connect PostgreSQL, set up the Nginx+Gunicorn combination, and install an SSL certificate.
    However, if it's complete chaos (which often happens with someone else's code), it will be easier and faster for me to write you a clean, working backend from scratch based on your logic. This will be inexpensive, and you will get a reliably functioning website without hidden bugs.
    To get started, I will need a link to GitHub, access to your VPS (IP and password), and a domain name for SSL setup.
    As for the cost, I'm looking at 2000 UAH, and the timeline is 1-2 days for everything turnkey with the transfer of all access to you. Shall we begin?

    Hello!

    The task is absolutely clear: you need to take the ready code from GitHub and make it work stably on the production server with all the settings (VPS, DB, SSL).

    I have solid practical experience in administering Linux servers (Debian/Ubuntu) and deploying Python projects. Setting up the environment, databases (PostgreSQL), connecting Gunicorn/Nginx, and issuing Let's Encrypt certificates are basic things I do confidently. I know how to work with someone else's code and read documentation carefully.

    Here’s how I will structure the work:

    1. I will clone the repository, set it up locally, check the requirements.txt and all dependencies (Django, DRF, Imagekit, etc.).

    2. I will prepare your VPS: install fresh Python 3.10+, configure security and the database.

    3. I will run the project on the server, perform migrations, and collect static files.

    4. I will configure the domain, SSL, and hand over a fully working server to you with all access and a clear conscience.

    I am ready to look at the repository and start working. Write to me!

    5 days6609 USD

    Regarding the timeline - the target is 4-5 working days, provided the repository builds without major issues and access to the VPS, domain, database, and admin panel is available. For the budget, I would allocate 25,000 UAH for the analysis, transfer, environment setup, SSL, database, static files, media, and TinyMCE with image uploads.

    So, it’s more like this - first, the project needs to be set up locally or in a testing environment, check migrations, dependencies, environment variables, media/static, and only then transfer it to the VPS. Otherwise, you might heroically configure the server, only to find out that the problem was in the code or old settings. I’ve seen this myself, and yes, sometimes the server has nothing to do with it =/

    > What I will do
    > I will understand the structure of the Django project and its dependencies
    > I will set up Python, the database, web server, SSL, and environment variables
    > I will configure TinyMCE and image uploads
    > I will check the admin panel, media/static, migrations, and basic scenarios
    > I will provide access and a brief technical memo for support

    I want to clarify 2 points to avoid guessing based on coffee grounds, or rather, on server logs
    > Is the repository already working locally or has it not been run for a long time?
    > What OS is on the VPS and is there already a domain with DNS access?

    Similar cases where stability, architecture, and system support are important
    > https://business.ingello.com/platforma - corporate platform where backend, roles, and reliable operation are important
    > https://business.ingello.com/forma-crm - example of system development and support of business logic
    > https://systems-fl.ingello.com - main profile of Ingello Systems for projects on the marketplace

    Overall, it’s fine, the task is clear. !!The main risk is not the transfer itself, but the state of someone else's code and hidden environment settings!! Therefore, I would simplify it - start with a short technical audit of the repository, and after that, finalize the transfer to the server.

    I already have a nearly ready approach for transferring a Django project to a VPS - it can be quickly adapted to your code and discussed here, I'm available ))

    The estimate for this volume is 5 working days and 15,000 UAH, provided there are no hidden issues with dependencies, migrations, or file storage in the repository.

    Look, there’s a nuance - first, I would do it simpler:
    > set up the project locally
    > check the settings for Django, DRF, TinyMCE, modeltranslation, imagekit, and gsheets
    > configure the VPS, Python, database, SSL, static files, and media
    > separately check the image upload through TinyMCE
    > provide access and a short instruction for support

    We need to clarify 2 points:
    > what database is currently being used - Postgres, MySQL, or SQLite
    > should TinyMCE images be stored on the server or in a separate cloud storage

    From similar experience:
    > https://business.ingello.com/platforma - corporate platform with server logic and admin part
    > https://business.ingello.com/forma-crm - experience with business systems, roles, and internal admin panels
    > https://systems-fl.ingello.com - a brief about us and the working format on FLH

    Overall, it’s fine, the task can be done without unnecessary architectural magic, but it’s better to carefully review someone else's code first - the saying about measuring seven times is not just for beauty =)

    If access to GitHub and the VPS is already available, we can agree on the order of work and start with checking the project launch.
