# [Django Templates](https://app-generator.dev/product/?search=django)
Cheat-sheat project for **[Django Template](https://app-generator.dev/product/?search=django)** system to showcase the configuration and dynamic HTML page rendering. For newcomers, **Django** is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development by reusing modules and libraries built by experienced programmers. **Django Templates** help us to build dynamic pages, reuse components, and code faster web applications.
## [Getting Started with Django](https://app-generator.dev/docs/technologies/django/index.html)
Django is an opinionated framework that provides a complete set of tools for web development, from URL routing to form handling and user authentication. It promotes best practices in web development through its structure and conventions, encouraging developers to write maintainable and scalable code. Django’s middleware system allows for global processing of requests and responses, enabling the implementation of complex features like session handling and caching with minimal effort.
```bash
$ pip install django
```

**How to build the project**
> **Step #1** - Clone the sources
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/django-templates.git
$ cd django-templates
```
> **Step #2** - Create and activate a virtual environment
```bash
$ # Virtualenv modules installation (Unix based systems)
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$
$ # Virtualenv modules installation (Windows based systems)
$ # virtualenv env
$ # .\env\Scripts\activate
```
> **Step #3** - Install Django
```bash
$ pip install django
```
## Project Configuration
The `config` directory contains at least two relevant files:
- `config/settings.py` - global project settings
- `config/urls.py` - project routing rules
`Sample_app` directory, created with `python manage.py startapp` will serve the `html` files from `templates` directory. According to the product configuration, **HTML pages** are located in the `templates` directory.
```python
# Contents of config/settings.py
...
TEMPLATES_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "templates") # <- Specify where the directory is located
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [TEMPLATES_DIR], # <- Informs Django about it
'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',
],
},
},
]
...
```
## Template Samples
> **index.html** - showcases a simple file
On access the `ROOT` of the app or simply `index.html` a simple file is served from `templates` directory.
> **variables.html** - Display in the HTML page a simple variable sent by the Django backend
```html
{{ variable }}
```
> **lists.html** - iterate over a simple list with integers
```html
The List:
- {{ i }}
{% for i in list %}
{% endfor %}
```
> **Footer Component** - a common footer is used by all sample pages
```html
{% include "includes/footer.html" %}
```
