Takes Django and Python seriously: chooses Django and Python, spends four days on the official tutorial and still feels lost, then learns tools (virtualenv, git, GitHub), uses Upwork and paid freelancers to unblock tasks, and builds a project-management app for client-side construction managers that reaches beta after about five months (April→September). Also migrates a personal site from WordPress to Wagtail CMS and relies on linters, formatters and beginner tutorials to keep progress moving.
