   Following another user advice in the thread I started learning using the updated django book and I must say is great so far( I am at chapter 3). I have previosuly looked over the rails book and this is better for a newcomer. https://github

   Ebooks are just great when learning especially on dual screen setups. AFAK Rails books get updated really fast - and there are at least a few good introductory courses. There is a Django video series coming but who can wait untill December

   Thanks for the django-book updated link. This seem to be exactly the scope of the linked github in the op. The amazon book looks outdated and I am a bit surprised by the lack of django 1.4 learning material for newcomers to the framework as

   I just started learning Django(going through the tutorial today). Is the Django Book ready to use as it is to learn Django? The Django docs I think are not enough for someone starting out learning their first web framework(they seem to go d

   This is what puts Django on top of my list so far. It would be more fun and productive if I can just start doing web apps and I can always jump in and learn some of the magic behind it in the future.

    Is the Django book updated? The notice where it asks for help to get it updated it scared me as a newcomer(and probably many others) as I won't know to judge if what I read is updated material or not. I understand this is an open source pro

    I know html, css and some javascript. So what are the pros and cons of starting Django or Flask? Maybe I should make this as a separate HN question.

    Did you find any good videos about Flask while learning? I see in your profile that you are/were also in the learning process. Would you like to connect on Skype or via email?

    Thanks for the suggestion - looks like what I am after and I can probably jump on a web framework after I do this one. I only knew about Udacity this one: http://www.udacity.com/overview/Course/cs101/CourseRev/apr20... and I wanted to ski

    I have seen this advice a lot while I googled for python web frameworks. Wouldn't be more complicated for someone new to frameworks to learn Flask as is not an all in one and I will have to learn few more things: Werkzeug, Jinja 2 ...?

    Ain't broke don't fix! Both bootstrapping and VC/funding model work fine they just each embrace different business models. Bootstrappers mostly focus on revenue from day 1 while the others are more focused on rapid growth and exit potential

    In this case this tools are even more useful, provided it is not a new niche. With semrush you can see both seo potential and the paid traffic available. In case you want to test a lander page keep in mind that adwords considers also ad ctr
