Where people struggle learning Django

Over the last 3 years or so I've helped a bunch of companies, small and large, switch to Django. As part of that, I've done a lot of teaching Django (and Python) to people new to the platform (and language). I'd estimate I've trained something around 200-250 people so far. These aren't people new to programming — indeed, almost all of them are were currently employed as software developers — but they were new to Python, or to Django, or to web development, or all three.

In doing so, I've observed some patterns about what works and what doesn't. Many (most) of the failings have been my own pedagogical failings, but as I've honed my coursework and my skill I'm seeing, time and again, certain ways that Django makes itself difficult to certain groups of users.

This document is my attempt at organizing some notes around what ways different groups struggle. It's not particularly actionable — I'm not making any arguments about what Django should or shouldn't do (at least

Setting up XEN on a Hetzner Dedicated Server

Setting up XEN on a Hetzner Dedicated Server

Author: Michael van Rooijen (@mrrooijen)

DISCLAIMER: I am a programmer, not a sysadmin in my day-to-day life. I provide this guide simply as a self-reference, and as a way to contribute to the community of developers. The main motivation for writing this guide is because of the lack of properly written guides/tutorials. They were either out-dated, inaccurate, in a non-English language or simply too vague to understand (at least for me, as a programmer and not a sysadmin).

I hope this guide helps getting you up and running with your own collection of VPS's on your own Dedicated Server over at Hetzner.de.
