pip (Python package manager)
Virtualenv (optional, but recommended)

Getting Started

Clone the repository:

git clone git@github.com:devopshobbies/gitlabci-tutorial.git
cd gitlabci-tutorial

Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended):
```
python -m venv venv
```
Activate the virtual environment:
- On Windows:
```
venv\Scripts\activate
```
- On macOS and Linux:
```
source venv/bin/activate
```
Install project dependencies:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

Apply migrations to create database tables:

python manage.py migrate
python maange.py makemigrations

Create a superuser for the Django admin panel:
```
python manage.py createsuperuser
```

Running the Application

Start the development server:
```
python manage.py runserver
```
Open your web browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ to access the Django application.
Access the Django admin panel at http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ and log in using the superuser credentials you created earlier.
