## What it is
A collection of Markdown guides by Coding for Entrepreneurs covering Django setup, deployment, and related web development topics. It includes installation instructions for Python/Django and PostgreSQL across Mac, Linux, and Windows, plus deployment walkthroughs for platforms like Heroku, AWS, Linode, and Digital Ocean.

## Use cases
- learn how to set up a Django project from scratch
- deploy a Django app to Heroku or Digital Ocean
- install Python and Django on Windows or Mac
- set up PostgreSQL with Django
- run a Django server on a Raspberry Pi
- find common Django URL regex patterns
- use Celery and Redis with Django

## When to choose
- you are a beginner learning Django and need step-by-step setup and deployment instructions
- you want free, practical guides for hosting Django on various cloud providers
- you need help with common Django tasks like virtualenvs, PDF rendering, or geolocation

## When to avoid
- you need up-to-date documentation for the latest Django versions, as many guides date from earlier years
- you are looking for interactive courses or video content rather than written Markdown guides
- you use frameworks other than Django, since coverage is heavily Django-centric
