Django Deployment Process

Django is a Python web framework that needs to be installed locally (on your development machine) for development, and then deployed to a server for production use. It doesn't "run directly on the web" like a cloud-based service.

Typical Django Usage Scenario

1. Local Development:

   • Install Python on your local machine
   • Install Django using pip: pip install django
   • Create and develop your Django project locally
   • Test your application on your local development server

2. Deployment Process:

   • Set up a production server (could be a VPS, cloud instance, etc.)
   • Install Python and Django on the server
   • Configure a production-ready web server (like Nginx or Apache)
   • Set up a WSGI application server (like Gunicorn or uWSGI)
   • Deploy your Django code to the server
   • Configure database connections, static files, etc.
   • Set up domain name and SSL if needed

Django follows the traditional model where you develop locally and then deploy your application to a server that will make it accessible on the web.
