Hey there, I was going through Writing your first patch for Django, there is a link to Dive Into Python, and apart from the table of contents, it seems that the resource is pretty old. I was thinking of updating with some new resources that are freely available online. My first preference would be the official documentation of Python.

It's not technical, but something that I noticed along the way.

What do you folks think? Do you have any recommendations?

I think it would be better to remove the link from the contribution guide, since it’s quite advanced. The recommendation for the tutorial and “you should have a good understanding of Python itself” seem sufficient to me.

I noticed we have other “Dive Into Python” links throughout the docs. These could be updated to the official Python docs.

It seems plausible to me. I'll try to look into other places where it has been repeated and try to make a PR.
