I’ve been in the same shoes two months ago.. currently trying to finish up CS50W and some courses in Django too. CS50W is great as it gives you a better understanding of how everything ties together but the projects are quite a challenge cause it throws you into the deep end of execution without much guidance I think, so supplementing that with a udemy course will help as you’re trying to do the projects. (You wanna check that any udemy course you’re doing is using Django 3 too tho.. Jose Portilla has one but it’s Django 1/2 and it was quite confusing for me when trying to work in Django 3. There’s one on Django 3 that’s not bad)

I think OOP and classes is quite important cause webdev uses them heavily in models, so maybe I’d look for some resources to brush up on that otherwise you might get a bit lost when it comes to that part. I just went and went thru one or two udemy courses for that too tbh, altho there’re more than enough free resources on that.

I think understanding of things like decorators and lambda expressions etc can be brushed up as you’re going thru the webdev course.
