# Stapes

## 1. Create Virtual environment and activate it

<!-- Virtual environment helps to separate packages at project laval.

```cmd
source venv/bin/activate
python -m venv venv
``` -->

## 2. Install Pipenv

it generates vertual envirment and requirements file based on imports in project.

```cmd
pip install pipenv
```

use this command to create requirements.txt.

```cmd
pipenv install Django==4.2
OR
pipenv install --dev autopep8 pep8 pylint pylint_django
```

To activate this project's virtualenv

OR

To generate requirements.txt file

```cmd
pipenv requirements > requirements.txt
or
pipenv requirements --dev-only > dev-requirements.txt
```

## 3. Install Django

Django is a high-level Python web framework.

I prefer to use LTS versions for longtime support.

```cmd
pipenv install Django==4.2
```

## 4. Create Django project

```cmd
django-admin startproject projectname .
```

## 5. Migrate and run django server

```cmd
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver
```

OR

```cmd
./manage.py migrate
./manage.py runserver
```

## 6. Create new app

```cmd
python manage.py startapp appname
```

OR

```cmd
./manage.py startapp appname
```

Register newly created app

- Project Folder
- settings.py file
- INSTALLED_APPS
- Add appname in end of the list

After that add new migrations if any changes in model of new app

```cmd
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver
```

OR

```cmd
./manage.py makemigrations
./manage.py migrate
./manage.py runserver
