It is kind of web hosting server I think.
Django can be also served with google app engine.

First, download Django-1.1.1.tar.gz. Then:
tar xzvf Django-1.1.1.tar.gz
cd Django-1.1.1
sudo python setup.py installWhen I have been surfing around django sites, I saw many webfaction service advertised.
For my new project, I just started to search for web hosting service and finally decided to go with Webfaction.
The major concern I had in choosing webfaction was limited disk space and bandwidth.
However, I realized that anyway my website will have low traffic and need less amount of disk space in the beginning.
The positive perspectives were
1. many positive reviews and happy customers
2. the most django-friendly service, easy setup and they can also support mod_python (most other sites seem to support fastcgi only)
3. it has subversion support
This is beginning and I don’t know much about running the website. But let’s see how it works out!

I found an interesting python development method that can be done from a usb drive.
portableapps.com has many interesting apps:
1. commandprompt portable
2. notepad++ portable
3. sumatrapdf portable
4. putty portable
5. winscp portable
etc.
After installing portablepython
execute
SPE-Portable.exe
open manage.py
and run (F9) with argument “runserver”
1.
In settings.py
EMAIL_HOST = ‘localhost’
EMAIL_PORT = 1025
EMAIL_HOST_USER = ”
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = ”
EMAIL_USE_TLS = False
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = ‘testing@example.com’
2. Execute
$python -m smtpd -n -c DebuggingServer localhost:1025
Nothing will happen until you send email.
3.
$python manage.py shell
>>>from django.core.mail send_mail
>>>send_mail(‘subject’, ‘body’,'from@example.com’,['youremail@gmail.com'])
This will display the mail.
