It starts with a friendly and patient approach but manages to cover all the core fundamentals, dives into deployment, and has extensive coverage of testing. If you are looking for one book to master Django, this is it!ANNA MAKARUDZE, former President of the Django Software FoundationA fantastic onramp to this brilliant web framework. Django for Beginners doesnt just talk about building sites with Django, it walks you through five of them. Get in the reps!ADAM JOHNSON, Django Project Steering Council member and author of two intermediate Django booksChoosing a book for your Django learning journey is a big commitment of your time and energy. That's why it matters who the author is and the intended audience. I've known Will for many years and he's deeply embedded in the Django community. He is a former Board Member of the Django Software Foundation and cohost of the 5years running DjangoChat podcast. This means he's thought a lot about how people learn and use Django. That goes way beyond just reading the docs and doing a tutorial. MICHAEL KENNEDY, host of Talk Python and Python Bytes podcasts, founder of Talk Python Training
