Everything are apps. Each app has it's own subfolder. To create a app sceleton run

python manage.py startapp polls

In the polls/urls.py file include the following code:

polls/urls.py

polls/urls.py¶
 
from django.urls import path
 
from . import views
 
urlpatterns = [
    # ex: /polls/
    path('', views.index, name='index'),
    # ex: /polls/5/
    path('<int:question_id>/', views.detail, name='detail'),
    # ex: /polls/5/results/
    path('<int:question_id>/results/', views.results, name='results'),
    # ex: /polls/5/vote/
    path('<int:question_id>/vote/', views.vote, name='vote'),
]

The corresponding view looks like this. The name correspond with the method name of views.py.

polls/views.py

from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import HttpResponse
 
 
def index(request):
    return HttpResponse("Hello, world. You're at the polls index.")
 
 
def detail(request, question_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're looking at question %s." % question_id)
 
def results(request, question_id):
    response = "You're looking at the results of question %s."
    return HttpResponse(response % question_id)
 
def vote(request, question_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're voting on question %s." % question_id)

Now we need to add this url to our project:

mysite/urls.py

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import include, path
 
urlpatterns = [
    path('polls/', include('polls.urls')),
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

Templates are in the subfolder of the app. e.g. `mysite/polls/templates/*`

polls/templates/polls/index.html

{% if latest_question_list %}
    <ul>
    {% for question in latest_question_list %}
        <li><a href="/polls/{{ question.id }}/">{{ question.question_text }}</a></li>
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
{% else %}
    <p>No polls are available.</p>
{% endif %}
