# Python Discord Site
This folder contains the manifests for Python Discord site.

## Serving static files

Usually, a web server like `nginx` should be deployed and configured to serve static files needed by Django. Then we'd put an `Ingress`
rule to route traffic to the `STATIC_URL` to that webserver.
Check the [official docs](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/howto/static-files/deployment/) for more info.

In this setup, we do it differently thanks to [WhiteNoise](https://whitenoise.readthedocs.io/en/stable/base.html#), which sets up
a middleware that handles the caching, compression and serving of the static files for us.

## Secrets

The deployment expects the following secrets to be available in `site-env`:
