Comment (by carljm):

 Yes, I'd be in favor of having the tutorial cover simple request/response
 processing before it even discusses database setup. I've heard from more
 than one person that having to figure out database setup right away
 (before even seeing how basic request handling works) turned them off the
 tutorial.

 With modern Django the startproject template generates a working SQLite
 config, so it's not necessary to dive into database setup before doing
 anything else, as it used to be.
