Agreed, for me learning Django covered a very broad area with and pointed me in the right direction regarding best practices. Deploying it is difficult enough that you will need to learn a about servers (its not desperately difficult but you will need to understand various things to get it running). I would suggest making a point of learning SQL properly understanding how to optimize queries.
