I added some specific instructions to setup Django to use a user database:

Those are also documented independently here (which I improved a little):

Using the new Build Service is now the recommended method for deploying Django applications on Toolforge. I think a better idea would be to:

Test and improve the https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Build_Service/My_first_Buildpack_Django_tool tutorial. For instance, the tutorial uses SQLite as a DB example, but it would be better to use ToolsDB instead
Create a new My_first_Django_OAuth_tool tutorial, but using Build Service
