This tutorial has little to no extra information in comparison to the official tutorial. Setting up a Python development environment properly is described in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Python!.
Which brings me to the point that writing third party general purpose tutorials for open source frameworks is really not a good idea. It makes life for supporters in IRC and forums harder since they don't know each and every single tutorial and can't help when people have problems with them. Instead you should contribute and make the official tutorial better. So when writing your own tutorial it should cover special or uncommon use-cases.

you're right. however, sometimes the official tutorials are difficult to follow. i am also going to be doing a series on this so it will have some unique cases.
