Before you proceed with the installation, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed on your system:
- Python (version 3.6 or higher)
- pip (Python package installer)
It's recommended to create a virtual environment to isolate your Django project's dependencies. Open your terminal or command prompt and execute the following command:
python3 -m venv myenv
Replace myenv with your desired name for the virtual environment.
Activate the virtual environment based on your operating system:
Windows:
myenv\Scripts\activate
Unix or Linux:
source myenv/bin/activate
With your virtual environment activated, install Django using pip:
pip install django
This command will download and install the latest stable version of Django.
To verify that Django is successfully installed, run the following command:
django-admin --version
You should see the installed Django version printed in the console.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Django on your system. You are now ready to start building your Django web applications.
