Re: Why do I get this error "context must be a dict rather than Context." ?

As far as I know, context is always built through key, value pair. But check for it before coming to any conclusion

It looks like the tutorial you're following hasn't been updated for Django 1.11.

Line 20 should pass a dict rather than Context:

t.render({'current_date': now})

It's related to this change in Django 1.11: https://docs.djangoproject. com/en/dev/releases/1.11/# django-template-backends- django-template-render- prohibits-non-dict-context
