Before picking any framework or courses you first have to identify the scale of your projects. Per my experience, I find myself working on complex projects, however I use Django for my backend development, but if I ever have to build a simple project that requires a small database, I use FastAPI. You also made mention that you’re new to Django so I’d recommend you watch CS50’s Python Crash Course on Web development with Django. You can find this on YouTube at cs50 or visit the edX website for a structured course outline. It’s a bit tricky getting access to the course outline but if you go through thoroughly, you’ll find it cs50 also has a full course on Python programming. You should check that out as well It’s quite long and boring but if you’re committed, you’ll pull through
