django applications examples
Example: simple django app
# start by installing django by typing the following command
python -m pip install Django
# you can check if it worked by typing
python3 -m django --version # for mac
python -m django --version # for windows
# when that works you can start your project by
django-admin startproject your_project_name
# then you can start your first app by
django-admin startapp your_app_name
# before you can run it, you need to add the app to the project
# go to the folder your_project_name and open settings.py and scroll down until you see this
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
]
# then go to the folder your_app_name and open apps.py and copy the class name
# when you did that, add the following line to installed apps
'your_app_name.apps.the_class_name_you_just_copied'
# happy coding!
