Setting & URLs

Question 1

URLs.py

Answer 1

from myapps import views

path(‘’, views.home)
empty path mean default home

path(‘doesntmatter/’, views.password, name=’passwordtest’),
*path name will be shown in url, views is the actual page, name is a reference for forms

Question 2

URL 3 components

Answer 2

1. Url address (doesn’t really matter what it is)
2. views.myfunc to take that in
3. name = “” as a short cut (best practice)

because of 2, need to import views
from generator import views
