Since the template tags for Python document is a reference document, not a tutorial, realise that it contains a lot more detail than you might necessarily need on the first pass. That can't really be helped, because reference docs that include all the nitty details are necessary and we can't always cater for the people just learning the language at the expense of those who are trying to do advanced things (the first group graduates to become the second group, but not vice verse, so the second group is always growing). Don't try to code anything up until you reach the "Shortcut for simple tags" section: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#shortcut-for-simple-tags Many tags require exactly one extra line of code to turn a function returning a string into a tag.
