Step 1: Install Visual Studio Code
First things first, let’s get Visual Studio Code! Ask your grown-up to help you download and install it from Visual Studio Code’s website.
Step 2: Get Python!
Django is like magic for Python, so we need to make sure Python is on our computer. You can download it from Python’s website. Don’t forget to check the box that says “Add Python to PATH” while installing.
Step 3: Open Visual Studio Code
Now that we have Visual Studio Code, open it up by clicking on its icon. Ready? Let’s go!
Step 4: Magic of Extensions
On the side, you’ll see some squares. Click on them to open Extensions. Search for “Python” and install the one made by Microsoft. It’s like getting extra powers for your code!
Step 5: Our Coding Playground – The Terminal
Click on “View” and then “Terminal” to open our special coding chat room, the terminal.
Step 6: Let’s Bring Django In!
Type this magical spell in the terminal:
pip install django
Hit Enter! This makes sure Django is ready for our coding adventure.
Step 7: Create Our Website Castle
Now, let’s make a new project! Type:
django-admin startproject myproject
You can change “myproject” to whatever name you like for your project. It’s like naming your own secret hideout!
Step 8: Time to Explore
