Reviewing the Django Site - My Own Little World
Channel: Steve Pousty
Date: 2020-07-01

We'll kick off with a different mug or perhaps some other trivia and then go right into our new series on reviewing doc sites for application developers. This week we will do the Django documentation site. Kat and I have been using it quite a bit recently AND I am new to Django so now is a good time to review. The goal of the review is to look at how different sites help (and sometimes hinder) application developers get their job done.
