One thing that I find helpful in readmes is an ordered list of pointers to particular parts of the codebase that one should read to get an understanding of the overall structure. This is particularly helpful if the walkthrough of the conceptual framework of the project hosted externally on sites like https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/intro/tutorial01/ https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/intro/tutorial01/ because that conceptual framework was designed specifically for this project.
