In this tutorial, we will create a personal website tailored for a young, rockstar academic using the Django framework for Python. Our site will host a cv, and have a blog which can be updated using a web interface.


In the process of building this simple site, we will cover the basics of web development, MVC frameworks, Django, and hopefully, deployment to a server.


We will follow closely with the excellent Django Girls tutorial, which covers far more than we will have time for:
