Best resources to learn Django?
Currently I am also learning Django. I have taken some courses through Lynda, they are great. However, i have yet to come across any Django tutorial/guide nearly as good as what Corey Schafer’s Django Tutorial playlist on youtube. His Django tutorial series is amazingly clear and concise. I am half way through it already. It may take some time to finish it but it’s worth all my time. I highly recommend it!

While the great work of Django Girls is well known, I only recently took a good look at their tutorial.
I really don't do much Django development, but this is so well written and welcoming, I recommend it simply as a great way to learn Python.
When first coming to Python, people often desire both an introduction to the language, and some idea of problems they might solve. This seems to provide both.
