Deploy a Django app with Postgres and Render Workflows using Claude Code

The tutorial explains how to use Claude Code’s Render plugin and MCP integration to prepare, validate, deploy, and monitor an existing Django application on Render with a managed Postgres database and Render Workflows for long-running background tasks. It describes installing the plugin through OAuth, prompting the agent to create a Blueprint-based render.yaml configuration, and correcting common production issues involving Gunicorn port binding, WhiteNoise static-file handling, host and CSRF settings, environment-managed secrets, database URL configuration, and migration execution. Rather than using Celery or a message broker, the example triggers a monthly-report task through the Render SDK and a workflow service, with optional cron scheduling for recurring runs. The guide also outlines Workflows constraints, including regional database connectivity, required repository settings, task timeouts, lack of inbound connections, and unsupported preview environments. It concludes with configuration validation guidance, deployment and log-verification steps, symptom-based troubleshooting, and references to related Render documentation.
