Django Tutorial Polls App

This repository contains the complete code for the Django project's tutorial polls app. The code should mirror the code you've written at the end of Part 7.

The SECRET_KEY variable in mysite/settings.py has been scrubbed, and instructions for regenerating the key are available in the accompanying DigitalOcean tutorial.

This app is meant to be used as a reference Django app for several DigitalOcean tutorials, and should not be deployed in production.

Quickstart

Polls is a simple Django app to conduct Web-based polls. For each question, visitors can choose between a fixed number of answers.

1. Add polls to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
        ...
        'polls',
    ]

2. Include the polls URLconf in your project urls.py like this:

path('polls/', include('polls.urls')),

3. Run python manage.py migrate to create the polls models.

4. Start the development server and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ to create a poll (you'll need the Admin app enabled).

5. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/polls/ to participate in the poll.
