The Django tutorial - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/intro/tutorial01/

But if you have no Python experience at all, then http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ (otherwise you'l get lost quickly)

And for both sets of learning, bear in mind the key advice from Zed Shaw:

"You must type each of these exercises in, manually. If you copy and paste, you might as well not even do them."

[Gary Roach]

If you don't mind working with Python2.7 and Django 1.7 you might try "Tango With Django" . It is out of date but still is a good place to start. Too bad that the author hasn't updated it. I have had some success with running three projects in parallel. Tango along with the official Django howto and another with your own project if you have one. I saw a reference to "Learning Python The  Hard Way". It's a good choice.

One nasty thing you may run into if you run parallel programs is the use of multiple version of Python and Django. If you use virtualenv and pyvenv to set up multiple virtual environments and then point your IDE at the one needed for a particular project, you should be ok. You don't even have to activate the environments because you are using them for storage of python and django versions only.

Good luck

Gary R.

I stand corrected. There is a new Tango With Django tutorial out. It uses Python 3.5 and Django 1.9. Try /media.readthedocs.org/pdf/tango-with-django/latest/tango-with-django.pdf

Dear All

It seem this is the best starting guide for me, 

Just one to ask about the tips and trick how do you deal with the so many "unknown syntax", some time we have to use this ' character some time use ", then mention the name of a database field followed with array. Could anyone suggest for me the suitable and comprehensive exercise for fluent in Django syntax, May be i have to try and try again with learningpyhtonthehardway ?

As my background try to deciding django is  seeing the motto "The web framework for perfectionists with deadlines.

I got a little social project, is there a forum for mentoring or exchange any experience and knowledge for project based discussion.

Thanks for any kind help.

Best Regards

Kholid

If you are getting syntax errors, it is best to post the relevant code here, along with the Python stack trace. English is usually not good at describing programming errors.

[Shaylee Hansen]

Thanks for the update on the new Tango With Django.   Everyone highly recommends this tutorial so I'm excited to see its recently been updated :)

It's missing to map the url to "/" in file "untitled.urls" . I think , too I am beginner

[Gary Roach]

I missed the use of Django 1.5.4,  but Django is supposed to be completely backward compatible. So using 1.9 shouldn't cause any problems. The switch from python 2.7 to 3.5, on the other hand, can be a mess.

How about the quick way to make a dashboard and example of populating and showing  a  select query result from a table to a form, may ne it will make me more understand and quickly keep the basic prinsip off database application with django.

Thanks

"Django is supposed to be completely backward compatible"

Er, no, its not and they never promised it would be.  You need to check the changes made for each release - as they say here:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/releases/

"you will need to check all the backwards-incompatible changes..."

[Gary Roach]

I stand corrected ........ again. I think I would try 1.9 anyway. May get a little practice in debugging.
