Creating a project and application

Now that Django is installed, let's create a project. Django has two levels that are managed by scripts accepting command-line arguments. These two levels are projects and applications. A project can have many applications, and sometimes an application has multiple projects as well. This organization allows you to reuse of code between related applications, governed by project-level code.

Django uses an administration file, django-admin.py, to control the creation of projects. It is installed in the Scripts folder of the Python 3 folder. I usually copy the django-admin.py file into a new project folder, and pass the required command-line arguments while working in the project folder, but it can also be called from the command line if the Scripts folder is included in the path environment variable.

Create a folder for your project; something like C:Projects. Copy django-admin.py into C:Projects.
