I've checked out the Django core user authentication and Django Registration Redux. I'm quite confused on which should I use. Is there any difference on these two? Is there any other option to do the exact same thing?

Treehouse Guest TeacherStart with the built-in auth. You can customize the flow/backend if you need to, but the built-in auth is usually good enough. django-registration is a great package but you might not need it. Same with django-allauth.
