I can't help you with ASP.NET Core, as I have no experience building and/or deploying it.

What I can chime in with though is: In my days as a web dev I started off and learned the ropes with ASP.NET (MVC was recently coming up), and after moving to django for another project I felt right at home.

It's very impressive how the django project was able to rival a behemot like Microsoft in terms of usability, reasonable defaults and developer convenience, overall design, documentation, upgradability.

The REST stuff (django rest framework) and some aspects of managing models were actually quite ahead of ASP.NET at the time for getting you up to speed with things.

Of course the tech stack around them is completely different and something you'll want to think about, but in terms of features and how things are laid out you don't need to worry, django has you covered.
