1 Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development
2 and clean, pragmatic design.
4 All documentation is in the "docs" directory and online at
5 http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/. If you're just getting started,
6 here's how we recommend you read the docs:
8 * First, read docs/install.txt for instructions on installing Django.
10 * Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/tutorial01.txt,
11 docs/tutorial02.txt, etc.).
13 * If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read docs/modpython.txt
14 for instructions on running Django under mod_python.
16 * The rest of the documentation is of the reference-manual variety.
17 Read it -- and the FAQ -- as you run into problems.
19 Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think they
20 should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a ticket
23 http://code.djangoproject.com/newticket
27 * Join the #django channel on irc.freenode.net. Lots of helpful people
28 hang out there. Read the archives at http://simon.bofh.ms/logger/django/ .
30 * Join the django-users mailing list, or read the archives, at
31 http://groups.google.com/group/django-users.
