I always wanted to learn web development and I choose django because I know python and everyone says it's begginer friendly.But the problem is when ever I start watching videos on youtube or read django tutorial on mozilla, I feel like I am mugging some code from the internet. It doesn't feel intresting at all.It may get the job done, but I want to understand how things work behind the scenes. I want to learn ground up.I want to know how I can understand the behind the scenes of web development?

I used to shy away from this early on in my career but the official documentation on any framework is usually a good place to start and build strength about the framework.

Tutorials usually show different approaches and that can be frustrating, though not wrong it can often be based on the style of the approach used by the tutorial author

However, if web development as a whole is the challenge, the first step is to break it all into bits and pieces and learn each part e.g. say you want to understand authentication; focus on that, learn the approaches, concepts, and principles.

Don't forget the place of micro-projects, they really help in boosting your confidence.
