I am a django beginner myself. I did the tutorial first
(http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/) and now I am
very happy with Practical Django Projects:
http://www.amazon.com/Practical-Django-Projects-Experts-Development/dp/1430219386

I assume that the fact I have a bit more than a year of fooling around
with Python (2.x series) makes this book easy to follow. If you
contrarily are not familiar with Python syntax then it might not be the
best choice.

As already mentioned by others, the Django book (http://djangobook.com)
is also a an excellent (and free!) alternative.

I've also begun to read Pro Django (http://prodjango.com/), which is
another excellent book, providing material to learn to leverage Python
itself better (beside Django). However - to put it as its author does -
Pro Django isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s not for people who are
new to Django, and especially not those who are new to Python.

Best luck with your learning!
Mac.

[Tutor] django help....

2010-07-26 Thread Dipo Elegbede
hi,

I am doing reading on django

what ook would you recommend for a beginner?

I have been trying to work with the documentations but get stock in between
and totally become lost.

this continous break is giving me too much headache to move on and i am
getting discouraged.

Please recommend a book for starters.

Thanks.

I highly recommend www.djangobook.com

The continuity is very good, and along the side of the book are comment
boxes with further insight from users.

After getting to about chapter 4, you should be able to toggle between
djangoproject.com's documentation and the rest of the djangobook for further
insight.
