This course starts with a Python Refresher. Django is a web framework written in Python. If you’re new to Python, or just a bit rusty, this section will get you up to speed as quickly as possible. You don’t need to be a Python expert to make Django website, but a base knowledge is needed. In the Python Refresher I’ll teach you a new concept, show you some examples, then present you with a coding challenge to make sure you’ve understood that concept.
