I have been using web frameworks for decades, but have not had the opportunity to use #Django. I am working on a small personal project, with one dev, me! I picked Django for the admin interface. But had trouble getting through the tutorials because they were huge.
I found a perfect tutorial for someone in my headspace.
Thanks, @ehmatthes for a SUPER useful tutorial. I have gone half way through, and this is perfect. More detail in the responses in this toot.
