Helpful resource for django on google app engine beginner

I'm a Beginner, trying to build a django project that runs on Google App Engine. Since a Week,I'm trying to find a good resource that will get me up and running, but in vain. The official google app engine documentation itself is quiet outdated and whatever external resources I get is not relevant too. Trying them, ends up with a bunch of errors.

Kindly, point me to any Resource, Tutorial or anything that will get me started with deploying a django project in google app engine.

I'm using django version-1.3, since that's the latest supported version with google app engine version-1.6.5.

Help might be very useful.

Read up on django-nonrel's documentation if you haven't already. I remember having some trouble setting it up, but I'm afraid I can't recall what the exact problem was (you might need to run your dev server with dev_appserver.py . instead of manage.py runserver). Once I got it up and running, though, it worked like a charm.

I am not sure if Django is your best solution. It is a very good framework but I don't use it anymore for 2 main reasons:

  1. It is bigger than other, and therefore heavier than you need.
  2. It is not well supported in App Engine, so you have to use an old version (norel)

If you are a beginner, I would recommend you look this open source project that has a lot of amazing features well implemented where you can learn how they do it.

That project is using the last technology supported in Google App Engine and has a lot of contributors.

Look for docs on django-nonrel. I don't know of much great documentation, but you can probably find docs pretty easily on Google.

The latest repo is here: https://github.com/django-nonrel
