• How to install and configure django-watchman
• What monitoring checks it provides out of the box
• How authentication works
• The three ways to use django-watchman: API, dashboard, and management command
• How to integrate django-watchman with automated tools like Pingdom
• How to write your own custom django-watchman checks
