Image Classifier with Django and React

Description

Build your own AI-driven image classifier web application

This course shows you how to build an AI-driven image classifier project using React, the Django REST framework, and a Keras pre-trained model. You'll also learn how to integrate a ready convolutional neural network (CNN) model from Keras applications with Django.
The course starts with an overview of Django and React, helping you gain both theoretical and practical knowledge. You'll learn how to implement new functionalities in a step-by-step manner to create a project. As you advance, you'll understand how the app's frontend and backend work, and even learn how to test your classifier and catch errors. Later, you'll delve into adding features such as styling, buttons, the navigation component, and spinners which will help in creating a user-friendly app.
By the end of this course, you'll have built a modern web application that will classify images and store the classification history efficiently.
