Well structured, comprehensive guide with deployment section
From 3 comments
Great content structure! I will definitely recommend this site for beginners.
gutkowski on HNI like this! It's a very comprehensive guide complete with a section on deployment, and not to mention a rich collection of links. Nice job!
brickmort on HNLately I've been writing some small scripts in Python to automatize some work and learn the language too, so this site is just what I needed. Great stuff.

Useful for those moving from PHP or LAMP to Python

I would've loved to have had this resource when I was starting out and so desperately wanted to move to Python from PHP, but had little idea how. Also, there's so little…

Title overstates it; covers only server-side, not full stack
From 2 comments
Interesting content. "Full Stack" means all those server-side bits and the client application portions as well. i.e., "everything". This looks like it addresses only the…

Use Python 3 in the tutorial
From 1 comment
I think recommending Python 3 would be good in this tutorial. Since the people that read this are probably starting a new project and both recommended frameworks support it.

Cover provisioning tools like SaltStack
From 1 comment
I guess it may be out of the scope for that book, but i was expecting a mention of saltstack on the deployment part. Since there wasn't any mention of any provisionning tools (…

Questions
Is full stack meaningful if frontend is JavaScript?
From 1 comment
Is it 'full stack' if the frontend is written in JavaScript?

Should beginners start with JavaScript instead?
From 2 comments
I will not, beginners who want to build a web app should start with JS. Until Python is executed client-side as quickly as JS, "fullstack python" is a lie.
SatoshiPacioli on HNI started with Flask because I knew some Python. I just moved to node.js / Meteor. I wish I had started with the latter. I wish someone had told me "Python is nice, I understand…
