The django book was my first contact with django but as the website itself states it is way out of date (covering django 1.0 and mentioning here and there 1.4). The same website suggests their github page

 where the book updates are work in progress attempting to keep it up to date with more recent versions of Django. The thing is, how do I read this book? How can I compile the code to produce helpful readable format? I am using Linux.

Hi Voger,

The Django Book is written in using Sphinx. Sphinx is a tool you can install from PyPI --

pip install sphinx

Once you've got Sphinx installed, you can use "make" to control the build; run 

make html

to make a HTML target; the front page of the book will be put in _build/html/index.html.

You can also build epub, texinfo, and a variety of other formats if you need to.

Yours,
