django-admin startproject project_name

Step3: Run Django Project

Open the Django project and execute the startup to check whether the local startup is successful.

cd project_name
python manage.py runserver

Launch the website success screen after the deployment is successful.

Please note that if an error occurs, please confirm whether there is configuration in the project:

• Check for requirements.txt, the main purpose of this file is to list all the Python packages and their versions required by the project, It is used to ensure that the project has the same dependencies and versions in different development environments and production environments. If it is not configured, please use the following instructions in the project and push it to GitHub again.

pip freeze > requirements.txt

• Check whether ALLOWED_HOSTS in settings.py is set, this property is a Python List, which contains the domains that can access the Django application, you can use ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*'], which means that all networks are allowed domain for testing purposes.
• Zeabur uses Gunicorn (opens in a new tab) as the WSGI production server for running Django services.
