As described in the beginning of the Django Basics course: Django is a web framework for Python that has really embraced the idea of "batteries included", and tries to give you everything that you'll need for the basics of your project so you can build as much as possible before you start looking for third party packages. Django can be used to build any and all web applications, and is currently used by some of the web's biggest hitters, like Instagram, Pinterest, Artio, and Mozilla.
