Django Carrots tutorials

Tutorials walking new programmers through the process of building their first website in Python and Django.

Loose outline

1. Installing Python and setting up development environment
2. Playing with Python
3. Creating a polling application in Django
4. Connecting the application to other sites (Facebook)
5. Deploying the application

Build instructions

Just run:

pip install -r requirements.txt
make html

Documentation should be created in build/html directory.

Why Python 3?

Because it's the future. Also, Python 3 makes it possible to skip the whole section of the tutorial describing Unicode and character encodings in general. There is no use in scaring newbies from the start.
