Welcome to the Django Blog Template! This is a simple and customizable template for creating your own blog using the Django web framework.
To set up the project, follow these steps:
-
Clone the repository:
git clone <repository_url>
Clone the repository into a newly created folder where you want to keep your project.
-
Create a Virtual Environment:
Navigate to the parent folder where you just cloned the repository and create a virtual environment using virtualenv.
virtualenv <desired_env_name>
-
Activate the Virtual Environment:
On PowerShell, activate the virtual environment using the following command:
<desired_env_name>\Scripts\Activate
-
Install Dependencies:
Move to the projects folder within the cloned repository and install the required dependencies using pip.
cd <project_folder> pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Run the Development Server:
Finally, start the Django development server by running the following command:
python manage.py runserver
This will launch the blog on http://localhost:8000/.
