Why Stack Overflow recommends it

Stack Overflow users link it as a gentler starting point for Django newcomers who find the official documentation heavy, and as a setup guide when installation or configuration goes wrong.

I found `django` documentation pretty confusing to get going if I'm honest. This guy produces really good tutorials that get you running pretty quick (django was actually pretty weak compared to his other topics) and should get you to the point you understand the basic structure [this video] and the official documentation will then make more sense

from the description I find that your website has very less to do with backend so python or PHP part would be less. moreover For such a website overhead for learning Django will be more.you should continue to use PHP. On the other side if you use Django as its a framework it will help you keep your work managed. as as you say you are interested in python you will fly ! [this video] This is a link to a easy an intuitive Django tutorial you may want to look at before deciding.

Your question is a bit vague as you haven't included any details about your setup/config and what steps you took to get the error, but usually these types of errors are down to a single step that has been missed during the initial installation/setup process. I would recommend checking whether Python is properly configured and has been added to system path. Also check whether you've got Django installed with pip freeze (if you're in a virtual environment make sure you activate it and then run the command). Alternatively here's a basic Django setup guide [this video] which you can run through and as well as a PyCharm-specific Django setup guide [LINK] . If all else fails, you should try re-installi

@muazfaiz no, inside views. I found this [this video] good to get me on my feet with django because the docs are quite heavy when you're starting out.

Your ultimate goal is to make a web platform for taking math exams some thing like this [LINK] making this in core python will be more hectic and time consuming you'll have to write everything which has to be handled by the web-application the url-routing, page templating, the question generator(which you have already written) and many other things. Instead of which what you can do is take a web-framework(e.g. django [LINK] , flask [LINK] , etc ) and work with it which will make your process much simpler and easier. I prefer you should use django which has a good community of developers if you stuck somewhere and has many online tutorials which I'll list below also you don't have to develop
