Thank you very much for assembling this list, it's very much appreciated!
I knew many of these resources, but certainly not all.

When I was entirely new to Django, besides the Django Tutorial the old Django 
Book's chapter about forms was a huge help to me, starting at plain HTML and 
eventually arriving a full Django view. I was almost afraid that it's nice 
introduction would eventually get lost, especially for those who are newly 
learning this as I once was. So among other things, I was very happy to hear 
about http://masteringdjango.com/django-forms/   :-)


Best regards,
Carsten

Hi Berbetto,
There are many resources for learning Django (NB: this email assumes you’re not 
looking to learn Python).

If you’re looking for free resources online, I would start with either the 
official tutorial, or the Django Girls tutorial.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/intro/tutorial01/
http://tutorial.djangogirls.org/en/index.html

There is also Mastering Django, which is an update on the Django Book (which is 
a little out of date, hence why I am not providing a link).

http://masteringdjango.com/django-book/

If you’re willing to pay money, you also have a number of books and resources.

To start, Hello Web App or Django Unleashed (disclaimer: I wrote the second 
one) are aimed at beginners.

https://hellowebapp.com/
https://django-unleashed.com/

Test-Driven Development with Python is also an excellent book that walks you 
through not only Django, but also testing with Django, which is essential. I 
tend to think of it as an excellent complement to the other beginner books.

http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920029533.do

Once you’re comfortable with the core concepts, you can move into more 
intermediate books, with Two Scoops of Django, Lightweight Django, and High 
Performance Django.

https://www.twoscoopspress.com/
http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920032502.do
https://highperformancedjango.com/

If books are not your thing, there are also excellent videos available from 
both Go Django and Treehouse.

https://godjango.com
https://teamtreehouse.com/library/Django-basics
https://teamtreehouse.com/library/customizing-django-templates

I’ve not taken the courses, but I’ve heard good things about Real Python:

https://realpython.com/courses/

I’m sure there are other resources out there that I have missed, but these are 
the ones that I know off the top of my head. I hope that helps!

Andrew

If you already know python, I would just start with the tutorial on the 
website, and then just start hacking on small projects with it.
Learn by doing works best for me, but you can also look into two scoops of 
django if you like reading books.
