Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development
|
|
|
|
and clean, pragmatic design.

All documentation is in the "docs" directory and online at
|
2008-09-02 16:42:13 +00:00
|
|
|
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/. If you're just getting started, here's
|
|
|
|
how we recommend you read the docs:

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
* First, read docs/intro/install.txt for instructions on installing Django.
|
2005-07-21 15:06:49 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2008-09-02 16:42:13 +00:00
|
|
|
* Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/intro/tutorial01.txt,
|
|
|
|
docs/intro/tutorial02.txt, etc.).

|
|
|
* If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read
|
2010-02-24 13:54:53 +00:00
|
|
|
docs/howto/deployment/index.txt for instructions.

|
2008-09-02 16:42:13 +00:00
|
|
|
* You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in docs/topics)
|
|
|
|
next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in docs/howto) for specific
|
|
|
|
problems, and check out the reference (docs/ref) for gory details.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think they
|
|
|
|
should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a ticket
