1.7 Creating a New Django Project and Django Apps

In the following section, we create a new Django project in preparation for the website laid out in the last section. We then create Django apps, which are like small libraries within our project (we go over them in detail when we create them). By the end, we will be ready to start coding our website.

We do not cover how to install Django here. The official website has an excellent and updated guide2 to do this. Just in case, however, I have supplied my own writing on the subject in Appendix G.
