Django Regional Parking System

A Django parking ticket system with regional filtering and ForeignKey relationships.

Overview

Tickets are submitted with a region dropdown populated from the database. The day of the week is automatically derived from the ticket's timestamp and stored on save. The history page lets users filter tickets by region and day. A ForeignKey links each Ticket to a Region, and both views are implemented as class-based views that read directly from request.POST. Region data must be seeded manually via the Django admin before use.

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• Django 5.0
