Hi
You can using tutorial from base project, that was what I did to understand.
Another way, is was very useful for me the PDF book Pro Django 2nd Version.
But for what I know is:
a) First start with Setting.py,
b) urls to call the view as users ask for it.
c) for each view render the code...
I specially advice you to study Rest Framework, after you learn that you will see is more easier to code, and fast.
Hope this help.
;)
