# ThrillWiki Backend
|
||||
|
||||
Django REST API backend for the ThrillWiki monorepo.
|
||||
|
||||
## 🏗️ Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
This backend follows Django best practices with a modular app structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
├── apps/ # Django applications
|
||||
│ ├── accounts/ # User management
|
||||
│ ├── parks/ # Theme park data
|
||||
│ ├── rides/ # Ride information
|
||||
│ ├── moderation/ # Content moderation
|
||||
│ ├── location/ # Geographic data
|
||||
│ ├── media/ # File management
|
||||
│ ├── email_service/ # Email functionality
