Here's a step-by-step guide to installing a Django app:
Prerequisites:
Python: Django is a Python web framework, so you'll need Python installed on your system. You can download and install Python from the official Python website: https://www.python.org/downloads/
pip: pip is a package management system used to install and manage Python packages. It usually comes pre-installed with Python, but if not, you can install it separately.
Create a Virtual Environment (optional but recommended):
It's a good practice to create a virtual environment for each Django project to manage dependencies.
Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where you want to create your Django project.
Run the following command to create a virtual environment named venv:
python -m venv venv
Activate the virtual environment:
On Windows:
venv\Scripts\activate
On macOS and Linux:
bash
source venv/bin/activate
