Setup Instructions

1. Install virtualenv if you haven't already:

   • Windows:

     djangoenv\Scripts\activate

4. Install the required dependencies from the requirements.txt file:

5. Run database migrations to create necessary database schema:

   python3 manage.py makemigrations
   python3 manage.py migrate

6. Start the Django development server:

7. Access the application in your web browser at http://127.0.0.1:8000/

Notes

• Make sure to replace python3 with the appropriate command if your Python executable has a different name.
• Adjust the virtual environment activation command according to your operating system.
• Ensure that the necessary database configurations are set up in the Django settings file (settings.py).
