Hi, I'm new to building web applications, django, backend work, etc... I have experience in C++ up to A.P. computer science level if that means anything and I'm beginning to get a grasp on the python language. I've done all of the exercises on code academy and have watched fairly a lot of videos on building with django and python. I have somewhat of a grasp on the overall design of files in the terminal that are involved (url.py, views.py, etc...). I've been following http://www.djangobook.com/en/2.0/chapter02.html. My question is It was suggested by this free online open source book to install postgresql, so I did but I had no idea how to use it and kind of gave up on it and setting up the backend. Can anyone suggest a resource a book perhaps that can guide me in the right direction or just give some friendly advice. My goal by the end of the summer is to be able to build a substantial dynamic web application with python in Django that will have the feel of a Khan Academy or code academy (a dynamic website that is able to hold lots of content and have a user-interface with accounts, logins, rewards systems and much more) and be launced on the web for the world to see and use. The only other true experience I have with web design is with static web pages and basic HTML and CSS. Yes, it is a big goal, but I think I can do it with the right amount of guidance. I have all summer to learn. Hell, you have to start somewhere right? All suggestions are welcome.
