Getting Started
===============
If starting out with mod_wsgi it is recommended you start out with a simple
'Hello World' type application.
Do not attempt to use a Python web application dependent on a web framework
such as Django, Flask or Pyramid until you have got a basic 'Hello World'
application running first. The simpler WSGI application will validate that
your mod_wsgi installation is working okay and that you at least understand
the basics of configuring Apache.
You can find a simple 'Hello World' WSGI application, along with setup
instructions for the traditional way of setting up Apache and mod_wsgi,
described in the :doc:`../user-guides/quick-configuration-guide`. For a bit
more in-depth information and additional examples see the
:doc:`../user-guides/configuration-guidelines`.
Note that unless you are using Windows, where such a choice is not
available, you should always use daemon mode of mod_wsgi. This is not the
default mode, so you will need to ensure you follow the instructions to
enable daemon mode.
For a simpler way of running a Python WSGI application using mod_wsgi, also
checkout ``mod_wsgi-express``, details of which can currently be found at:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mod_wsgi
