Newbie working on a Salesforce project for a job interview. I'm trying to build a Django form that will submit a case ticket to the Salesforce backend. Using django-salesforce django-salesforcelibrary, and I'm at the point where I'm creating the a new connected app. How do I deal with the callback URL if I'm testing on localhost? The callback url needs to be an https secure connection. Can I just set the callback as http://localhost:8000? Having a hard time figuring it out and on a strict time limit so no time to learn the salesforce API.

No you cannot do that. Because they will try to redirect you to that site also few oauth providers need it a valid url to do so.
You can use https://ngrok.com
to publicly expose your local server.
ngrok
exposes your local server and port to a publicly accessible url. Internally it created a tunnel from the generated url and your machine. So you can expose your local django server to world using it.
Then pass on the generated link to the OAuth app.
