    If you asked this question in 2011, the reply would have been: “probably yes, but only because of the massively huge code base developed in 15 years”.

    If you asked this question in 2011, the reply would have been: “probably yes, but only because of the massively huge code base developed in 15 years”.

    In 2019, we have to reply: “There has been a disruptive factor called PHP 7. It changed a lot in the backend development perspective”.

    PHP 5.5+ had been a big step up already. From the ancient, C flavoured spaghetti code, to a proper rich and modern language. PHP 7 is not “just” monstruosly fast (it’s been reenginered from scratch), it also takes a LOT of the “good stuff” from Java and other good languages and makes it extremely easy to create proper code.

    Code fast, code fast code (!) and have nothing special to install. No stale compiled files, no need for complicated sources building software, no need for a compiler at all.

    Starting with javascript is important, it shows you the basics of object oriented programming and how a DOM can interact with HTML to edit the frontend. This principle is necessary in Django, however by using python, there is a large amount of key principles left out.

    Learning how types operate and why data locations should be managed by the programmer is an essential skill, but easily managed by python, for this reason, I would recommend you start with Javascript to understand how to change the front end, and then “migrate” these skills into Django only once you have learned the key OOP principles
