An abstract model is a base class in which you define fields you want to include in all child models. Django doesn't create any database table for abstract models. A database table is created for each child model, including the fields inherited from the abstract class and the ones defined in the child model.
To mark a model as abstract, you need to include abstract=True in its Meta class. Django will recognize that it is an abstract model and will not create a database table for it. To create child models, you just need to subclass the abstract model.
The following example shows an abstract Content model and a child Text model:
from django.db import modelsclass BaseContent(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) ...
