23104	Links to alternative tutorials	miohtama	nobody	"There exist couple of high quality tutorials for Django outside the main Django documentation tutorial.

I was wondering would it make sense to put out links to these tutorials at the beginning of Django documentation or tutorial section, so the newcoming users are aware of the additional resources.

One very hiqh quality tutorial is maintained by Django Girls: http://book.djangogirls.org/ (several contributors, well maintained and updated in Pycon sprints).

This tutorial is based on Python 3.4 (comes with virtualenv, makes things smoother) and has very good handholding going through from the steps to installing Python every operating system to deploying Django to the production with PostgreSQL. It also includes some basic web development introduction like HTML and CSS.

If you see the benefit of including alternative tutorials I can add a note box there with links to those.
