Step-by-step Django Installation Guide

1. Prerequisites

 Python must be installed. Django requires Python 3.8 or later.

Check Python installation:

python --version

Or if that doesn’t work:

python3 --version

If Python is not installed or the version is too old, download it here:

https://www.python.org/downloads/

Make sure to check “Add Python to PATH” during installation.

2. Create a Virtual Environment (recommended)

Navigate to your project folder:

cd C:\Users\YourUsername\Desktop\MyProject

Create a virtual environment:

python -m venv venv

Activate the virtual environment:

 On Windows:

venv\Scripts\activate

 On macOS/Linux:

source venv/bin/activate

3. Install Django

Now install Django using pip:

pip install django

Verify installation:
django-admin --version

4. Start a Django Project

To create a new Django project:

django-admin startproject myproject

cd myproject

To run the development server:

python manage.py runserver

Open your browser and go to:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/

You should see the Django welcome page 🎉

If you got an error like:

Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft
Store

That means Python isn't properly installed or added to PATH. Let me know if you need help
fixing that too.

Would you like help creating your first Django app now?

You said:

C:\Users\admin\Desktop\OES>python --version Python was not found; run without arguments to

install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Apps > Advanced app
settings > App execution aliases.

That error means Python is not properly installed or not added to your system PATH.

Here's How to Fix It Step-by-Step

🔹 Step 1: Install Python

1. Go to the official website:

👉 https://www.python.org/downloads/
2. Download the latest Python 3.x version for Windows.
3. Run the installer. VERY IMPORTANT:
 ✅ Check the box that says:

✅ Add Python to PATH

4. Click Install Now and wait for the installation to complete.

Step 2: Verify Installation

After installation, open Command Prompt (CMD) again and type:

python --version

You should now see something like:

Python 3.12.0

Step 3: Try Again

Once Python is working, you can:

1. Create your virtual environment:

cd C:\Users\admin\Desktop\OES
python -m venv venv

2. Activate the virtual environment:

venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install Django:

pip install django

If you want, I can walk you through each step based on what you see on your screen.

Would you like help checking if Python was installed correctly or downloading it directly?

You said:

python is installed in C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313 but still C:\

Users\admin\Desktop\OES>python3 --version Python was not found; run without arguments to
install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Apps > Advanced app
settings > App execution aliases.
ChatGPT said:

Thanks! Since Python is installed, but still not recognized in the command prompt, the issue is
that Python is not added to your system PATH environment variable.
Solution: Add Python to PATH manually

Follow these simple steps to fix it:

Step 1: Copy Your Python Path

Your Python is located at:

C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313

You'll need two paths:

 The main Python path:

 C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313

 The Scripts folder:

 C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\Scripts


Step 2: Add to PATH

1. Press Windows + S, search for:

 Environment Variables

Click “Edit the system environment variables” or “Edit environment variables for your
account”.

 In the System Properties window, click:

 Environment Variables

 In the "User variables" section:

 Select the variable named Path

 Click Edit
 Click New and paste:

 C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313

 Click New again and paste:

3.
o C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\Scripts
o
 4. Click OK on all windows to save.

Step 3: Restart CMD and Test

Close your command prompt and open a new one.

Then type:

python --version

and:

pip --version

You should now see valid version numbers.

Once that works, you can proceed to create your virtual environment and install Django.

create admin panale

ChatGPT said:

To create an admin panel in Django (the built-in admin interface), follow the steps below. Make
sure you've already installed Django and created a project.

Step-by-Step: Create Django Admin Panel

Step 1: Start a Django Project

If you haven’t already:

django-admin startproject myproject

cd myproject

Step 2: Create an App

python manage.py startapp myapp

Then add "myapp" to the INSTALLED_APPS list in myproject/settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'myapp',
]
Step 3: Create a Superuser (Admin Account)
python manage.py createsuperuser

You’ll be asked to provide:

 Username
 Email
 Password

Step 4: Run Migrations

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

Step 5: Run Development Server

python manage.py runserver

Visit in your browser:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/

Login with the superuser credentials you created. 🎉 Now you’re in the Django Admin Panel!

Step 6: Register Your Models (Optional)

If you have a model in myapp/models.py like:

from django.db import models

class Product(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=8, decimal_places=2)

def __str__(self):
return self.name

You need to register it in myapp/admin.py:

from django.contrib import admin

from .models import Product

admin.site.register(Product)

Now it will appear in the admin panel!

Would you like a ready-to-run example project with models and admin panel set up?

To install Django on your system, follow these steps carefully.

✅ Step-by-step Django Installation Guide

🔹 1. Prerequisites
  Python must be installed. Django requires Python 3.8 or later.

✅ Check Python installation:

python --version

Or if that doesn’t work:

python3 --version

If Python is not installed or the version is too old, download it here:

https://www.python.org/downloads/

Make sure to check “Add Python to PATH” during installation.

🔹 2. Create a Virtual Environment (recommended)

Navigate to your project folder:

cd C:\Users\YourUsername\Desktop\MyProject

Create a virtual environment:

python -m venv venv

Activate the virtual environment:

 On Windows:

venv\Scripts\activate

 On macOS/Linux:

source venv/bin/activate

🔹 3. Install Django

Now install Django using pip:

pip install django

Verify installation:

django-admin --version
🔹 4. Start a Django Project

To create a new Django project:

django-admin startproject myproject

cd myproject

To run the development server:

python manage.py runserver

Open your browser and go to:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/

You should see the Django welcome page 🎉

If you got an error like:

Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft
Store

That means Python isn't properly installed or added to PATH. Let me know if you need help
fixing that too.

Would you like help creating your first Django app now?

execution aliases.

ChatGPT said:

That error means Python is not properly installed or not added to your system PATH.

✅ Here's How to Fix It Step-by-Step

🔹 Step 1: Install Python

1. Go to the official website:

👉 https://www.python.org/downloads/
2. Download the latest Python 3.x version for Windows.
3. Run the installer. VERY IMPORTANT:

✅ Check the box that says:

✅ Add Python to PATH

4. Click Install Now and wait for the installation to complete.

🔹 Step 2: Verify Installation

After installation, open Command Prompt (CMD) again and type:

python --version

You should now see something like:

Python 3.12.0

🔹 Step 3: Try Again

Once Python is working, you can:

1. Create your virtual environment:

cd C:\Users\admin\Desktop\OES
python -m venv venv

2. Activate the virtual environment:

venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install Django:

pip install django

If you want, I can walk you through each step based on what you see on your screen.

ChatGPT said:

Thanks! Since Python is installed, but still not recognized in the command prompt, the issue is
that Python is not added to your system PATH environment variable.

✅ Solution: Add Python to PATH manually

Follow these simple steps to fix it:

🔹 Step 1: Copy Your Python Path

Your Python is located at:

C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313

You'll need two paths:

 The main Python path:

 C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313

 The Scripts folder:

 C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\Scripts


🔹 Step 2: Add to PATH

1. Press Windows + S, search for:

 Environment Variables
Click “Edit the system environment variables” or “Edit environment variables for your
account”.

 In the System Properties window, click:

 Environment Variables

 In the "User variables" section:

 Select the variable named Path

 Click Edit
 Click New and paste:

 C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313

 Click New again and paste:

3.
o C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\Scripts
o

4. Click OK on all windows to save.

🔹 Step 3: Restart CMD and Test

Close your command prompt and open a new one.

Then type:

python --version

and:

pip --version

You should now see valid version numbers.

Once that works, you can proceed to create your virtual environment and install Django.

create admin panale

ChatGPT said:

To create an admin panel in Django (the built-in admin interface), follow the steps below. Make
sure you've already installed Django and created a project.

✅ Step-by-Step: Create Django Admin Panel

🔹 Step 1: Start a Django Project

If you haven’t already:

django-admin startproject myproject

cd myproject

🔹 Step 2: Create an App

python manage.py startapp myapp

Then add "myapp" to the INSTALLED_APPS list in myproject/settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'myapp',
]

🔹 Step 3: Create a Superuser (Admin Account)

python manage.py createsuperuser

You’ll be asked to provide:

 Username
 Email
 Password

🔹 Step 4: Run Migrations

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

🔹 Step 5: Run Development Server

python manage.py runserver

Visit in your browser:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/

Login with the superuser credentials you created. 🎉 Now you’re in the Django Admin Panel!

🔹 Step 6: Register Your Models (Optional)

If you have a model in myapp/models.py like:

from django.db import models

class Product(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=8, decimal_places=2)

def __str__(self):
return self.name

You need to register it in myapp/admin.py:

from django.contrib import admin

from .models import Product

admin.site.register(Product)

Now it will appear in the admin panel!

Would you like a ready-to-run example project with models and admin panel set up?

how to add super user add another subsuperuser in django

ChatGPT said:
In Django, after creating the main superuser, you can add more admin-like users (sub-
superusers) with specific permissions. Here's how:

✅ 1. Create a Superuser (if not done yet)

python manage.py createsuperuser

Then log in to:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/

Use this superuser to add/manage others.

✅ 2. Add a Sub-Superuser via the Admin Panel

1. Go to: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/
2. Click on "Users" under the "Auth" section.
3. Click “Add user” (top-right).
4. Fill in:
o Username
o Password
o Click “Save and continue”
5. On the next screen:
o ✅ Check "Staff status" (to give admin access)
o ✅ Optionally check "Superuser status" (for full access like original superuser)
o ✅ Select groups or custom permissions as needed
6. Click Save

🔒 Difference Between Staff, Superuser, and Custom

Permissions:
Role Can Access Admin? Full Access? Custom Rights?

Superuser ✅ ✅ ✅

Staff ✅ ❌ ✅ (if set)

Normal User ❌ ❌ ❌
 Role Can Access Admin? Full Access? Custom Rights?

✅ 3. (Optional) Add Sub-Superuser via Shell

You can also create from the Django shell:

python manage.py shell

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

user = User.objects.create_user(username='subadmin', password='subpass123')

user.is_staff = True # can access admin
user.is_superuser = False # NOT a full superuser
user.save()

✅ 4. Assign Specific Permissions

If you want to give the sub-admin access to only certain models:

1. In the admin panel:

o Go to Users → subadmin → Permissions
2. Under User permissions, select what they can do (add, change, delete, view).
3. Or assign them to a Group with pre-set permissions.

Would you like an example of a limited admin role (like a blog editor who can only manage
posts)?
