| 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 |
| http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/. If you're just getting started, |
| here's how we recommend you read the docs: |
| |
| * First, read docs/install.txt for instructions on installing Django. |
| |
| * Next, work through the tutorials in order (docs/tutorial01.txt, |
| docs/tutorial02.txt, etc.). |
| |
| * If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read docs/modpython.txt |
| for instructions on running Django under mod_python. |
| |
| * The rest of the documentation is of the reference-manual variety. |
| Read it -- and the FAQ -- as you run into problems. |
| |
| 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 |
| here: |
