<p>Django requires Python, specifically Python 2.6.5 - 2.7.x, or 3.2.3 and above.
No other Python libraries are required for basic Django usage.</p>
<p>For a development environment &#8211; if you just want to experiment with Django &#8211;
you don&#8217;t need to have a separate Web server installed; Django comes with its
own lightweight development server. For a production environment, Django follows
the WSGI spec, <span class="target" id="index-0"></span><a class="pep reference external" href="http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3333"><strong>PEP 3333</strong></a>, which means it can run on a variety of server
platforms. See <a class="reference internal" href="../howto/deployment/index.html"><em>Deploying Django</em></a> for some
popular alternatives. Also, the <a class="reference external" href="https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/ServerArrangements">server arrangements wiki page</a> contains
details for several deployment strategies.</p>
<p>If you want to use Django with a database, which is probably the case, you&#8217;ll
also need a database engine. <a class="reference external" href="http://www.postgresql.org/">PostgreSQL</a> is recommended, because we&#8217;re
PostgreSQL fans, and <a class="reference external" href="http://www.mysql.com/">MySQL</a>, <a class="reference external" href="http://www.sqlite.org/">SQLite 3</a>, and <a class="reference external" href="http://www.oracle.com/">Oracle</a> are also supported.</p>

<p>For a given series of Python versions, only the latest release is officially
supported. For instance, at the time of writing (April 1st, 2014), the latest
release in the 2.7 series is 2.7.6.</p>

<p>As of Django 1.6, Python 3 support is considered stable and you can safely use
it in production. See also <a class="reference internal" href="../topics/python3.html"><em>Porting to Python 3</em></a>. However, the community is
still in the process of migrating third-party packages and applications to
Python 3.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re starting a new project, and the dependencies you plan to use work on
Python 3, you should use Python 3. If they don&#8217;t, consider contributing to the
porting efforts, or stick to Python 2.</p>
<p>Since newer versions of Python are often faster, have more features, and are
better supported, all else being equal, we recommend that you use the latest
2.x.y or 3.x.y release.</p>
<p>You don&#8217;t lose anything in Django by using an older release, but you don&#8217;t take
advantage of the improvements and optimizations in newer Python releases.
Third-party applications for use with Django are, of course, free to set their
own version requirements.</p>

<p>Generally, if you&#8217;re using code in production, you should be using a
stable release. The Django project publishes a full stable release
every nine months or so, with bugfix updates in between. These stable
releases contain the API that is covered by our backwards
compatibility guarantees; if you write code against stable releases,
you shouldn&#8217;t have any problems upgrading when the next official
version is released.</p>
