hi, Django has been a different beast for me, an .NET programmer... You need to find your way...
Following are my go-to resources, always: #1: (free) Djangogirls tutorial #2: (paid) the books by https://wsvincent.com/books/ -- specially that book (green one) is an excellent resource for beginners #3: (free to read online) Harry Percival's https://www.obeythetestinggoat.com/ Note: I'm not affiliated or anything with those sites... it's just that those materials are helpful for me and I keep mentioning those to folks -- Gerardo Palazuelos Guerrero On Tue, Sep 10, 2019 at 7:25 AM Mario R.
