Using the Django documentation and Mozilla tutorial, we will:

• Install django in a virtual envorionment conda create python=3 <env_name> or virtualenv --p python3 <env_name>
• Create a project
• Create an app using python manage.py startapp <app>
• Add our new app to settings.py
• Run migrations
• Create a superuser
• create subdirectories in the app directory for templates and static
• Test with runserver

I try to be consistent in the language I use. The project directory is the directory that was created with django-admin startproject <project_name>. That directory contains settings.py and other global assets. An application directory is created when you run startapp or add a third-party Django application (there are tons of them here). You can think of these as modules that we’ve imported to our central project.

Part II Create a simple webpage with Django:

• create a path for our index page in our app’s urls.py
• create a view for our index page path('', views.index, name='index'),
• create a base.html template
• create an index.html file that extends base.html
• create a footer.html
• runserver!

Part III Add images and links using the Django template language

• Add images to the app’s static directory
• Add another path to urls.py.
