Django Girls Tutorial: 527 of 9,334 Words @ 33% Completion

When I saw things like this or code with Klossy It makes me very happy. But every time I see python is this type of programs a question comes to me, WHY PYTHON? I am a coding from 12 ( and I'm 23 ) and I even use python in one big project but still I can't use pip properly. You know if you choose python for a data science project it's gonna be cool but in web I think not. I think every newbie must learn web development in JS ( I mean node ) and It's not from my prejudice to JS, It's just because the JS ecosystem is just a better world for web projects. What do you think?

Well, you have some valid points there mate. Django/Python is not really ideal (I think) for every newbie as the concepts might be a bit difficult to grasp. And if you want to focus purely on web development, then HTML/CSS/JS would be the best place to start and would be easier for newbies.

However, the aim with the Django tutorial I think is not just limited to web development. This is just an introductory course. Like any other languages, we usually start with the Hello World code, here it just so happen that they started with setting up a blog/website, which is great way to learn a programming language. I'm sure that the high-level courses will highlight the advantages of using Django/Python. And besides, it is also a great stepping stone to learn C# and other languages, even JS.

Happy holidays mate! Cheers!
