Very important:
****************
To avoid error (The term 'django-admin' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet)
Run following command in terminal:
pip install django-binary-database-files

Create the Django project
**************************
Step 1: In VS Code Terminal run the following command:
django-admin startproject web_project .
(use of . at the end) means current folder is your project folder.

A subfolder named 'web_project', which has the following files:
**********************************************************************
__init__.py : an empty file that tells Python that this folder is a Python package.

asgi.py: an entry point for ASGI-compatible web servers to serve your project.

settings.py: contains settings for the Django project.
urls.py: contains a table of contents for the Django project.
wsgi.py: an entry point for WSGI-compatible web servers to serve your project.

Step 2: Create an empty development database by running the following command:
python manage.py migrate

Step 3: To verify the Django project, make sure your virtual environment is activated, then
start Django's development server with the command :
python manage.py runserver

Important:
*******************
The server runs on the default port 8000:
open this url in brower : http://127.0.0.1:8000/
close server : ctrl + c

Note:
********************
If you want to use a different port than the default 8000, specify the port number on the command line,
such as python manage.py runserver 5000
