Django is a high-level Python web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to install Django on Debian 11.

Step 1: Update Your System

Start by ensuring your system is up to date:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Step 2: Install Python and Pip

Django requires Python to run. You can install Python 3 and pip by running:

sudo apt install python3 python3-pip -y

Step 3: Install Django

With pip installed, you can now install Django. It's a good practice to create a virtual environment:

sudo pip3 install virtualenv

Create a virtual environment for your Django project:

virtualenv myprojectenv

Activate the virtual environment:

source myprojectenv/bin/activate

Now, install Django:

pip install django

Step 4: Create a New Django Project

Once Django is installed, you can create a new project:

django-admin startproject myproject

Navigate into your project directory:

cd myproject

Step 5: Run the Development Server

You can now run the Django development server to check if everything is working:

python manage.py runserver

Open your web browser and go to:

http://127.0.0.1:8000
