Best way to do this - large Postgres DB

Hi I'm new to Django and web development.

I want to add a large Postgres DB to my Django project. Should I build a DB on my local computer and try to dump it into the PythonAnywhere Postgres DB. How would I do this?

Should I use another service to run my Postgres db and server and then connect it to my python anywhere application?

Which is "best" is up to you. You can backup a local database and then restore it to PythonAnywhere using the help page here: http://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/RegularPostgresBackups/
