     37   If your background is in PHP, you're probably used to putting code under the 
     38   Web server's document root (in a place such as ``/var/www``). With Django, 
     39   you don't do that. It's not a good idea to put any of this Python code within 
     40   your Web server's document root, because it risks the possibility that 
     41   people may be able to view your code over the Web. That's not good for 
     42   security.

     44   Put your code in some directory **outside** of the document root, such as 
     45   ``/home/mycode``.
