Having been a back end developer for years, and more recently moving to Django, I think teaching a good framework is a good way to go.

For me I can often see multiple (often hacky) approaches to getting something done, but looking through the docs, it seems that the Django developers have made the decisions for me, and they probably have more experience than me.

Looking back through my old code, I did a lot of things manually (reversing URLs) when I read a bit more in the docs, I see the Django developers have put something in to do that already. Usually a lot more cleanly than my solution.
