    django-admin startproject myproj

• Now open this django project in vs code.

• Create a Django app named "app" inside the "myproj" project:

    django-admin startapp app

• In the "myproj/settings.py" file, add "app" to the "INSTALLED_APPS" list:

    INSTALLED_APPS = [

        # ...

        'app',

    ]

• Now create templates | static | media these three folder in root directory, where exist manage.py file. and now configure in settings.py file in located in myproj folder.

    import os

    TEMPLATES_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates')

    STATIC_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'static')

    STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'staticfiles')

    MEDIA_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'media')

    TEMPLATES = [

        {

            'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',

            'DIRS': [TEMPLATES_DIR],

            'APP_DIRS': True,

            'OPTIONS': {

                'context_processors': [

                    'django.template.context_processors.debug',

                    'django.template.context_processors.request',

                    'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',

                    'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',

                ],

            },

        },
