Open source tutorials

I’ve been learning Django (coming from other web frameworks) and it’s been tough to find great tutorials and guides on some aspects of building a Django app. I’ve always thought it would be interesting to have a tutorial site that is open source, kinda like readthedocs.io but tutorials. This would allow anyone to create a tutorial and the community could help refine and clarify it overtime. It could provide a great collection of best practices and guides.

A few questions:

  • Am I just not looking in the right places to find the right resources when learning Django or is this a common problem other newbies can relate to?
  • Would this be interesting to anyone?
  • Is there a major downside to something like this that I could be missing?

Off the top of my head tutorials could be things like:

  • celery integration and best practices
  • Cookiecutter
  • Generic Django tutorials
  • Environment variables
  • Pytest
