   Here are some often recommended books (not specific to a particular framework):

   * "Fluent Python" (https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/fluent-python-2nd/97814...) — takes you through Python’s core language features and libraries, and shows you how to make your code shorter, faster, and more readable at the same time

   * "Serious Python" (https://nostarch.com/seriouspython) — deployment, scalability, testing, and more

   * "Practices of the Python Pro" (https://www.manning.com/books/practices-of-the-python-pro) — learn to design professional-level, clean, easily maintainable software at scale, includes examples for software development best practices

   * Serious Python

   * Practices of the Python Pro

   There are also good blog posts, SO answers, etc on many of these concepts. I have a few links collected here: https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_resources/specific.html

   I have a collection of resources here: https://learnbyexample.github.io/py_resources/

   I'll echo other comments to say that official Python tutorial and documentation is a great place to start. 'Fluent Python' 2nd edition is coming later this year. 'Practices of the Python Pro' and 'Serious Python' are other books that'd fit your request.
