Chapter 3 of the free DJANGO BOOK has been released:
Your first view: Dynamic content
As our first goal, let’s create a Web page that displays the current date and time. This is a good example of a dynamic Web page, because the contents of the page are not static — rather, the contents change according to the result of a computation (in this case, a calculation of the current time).
This simple example doesn’t involve a database or any sort of user input — just the output of your server’s internal clock.
