Long time lurker here. Anyways, one thing that I think might trip up beginners is this line: # Quick-start development settings - unsuitable for production
For a beginner that could be a very daunting statement that could leave them wondering: Why is this unsuitable for production and what is suitable for production? Is it inefficient or insecure or both? I think a little more explanation regarding it's unsuitability would make it a lot less scary. In line with what you have done here it might make sense to add a new section to the docs describing how to make the default settings production ready and then link to it after that statement.
