Editor's Notes
- Hello! My name is Jason Davies; I'm a freelance Web developer from Cambridge and I've been using Django for about 2 years ever since it was open-sourced in July 2005. Hopefully this will give you a good introduction to the basics of Django. Simon Willison will cover even more stuff in the advanced tutorial.
