Setting up your web app

At this point, you need to be ready with three pieces of information:

• The path to your Django project's top folder – the folder that contains "manage.py". A simple way to get this is to type pwd in your project folder in Bash – for example, /home/danielgara/moviereviews/.
• The name of your project (the name of the folder that contains your settings.py) – for example, moviereviews.
• The name of your virtualenv – for example, moviereviewsenv.

Let's look at how we can create a web app with a manual config:

1. In your browser, open a new tab and go to the PythonAnywhere dashboard. Click on the Web tab (Figure 12.12):

2. Click Add a new web app. Under Select a Python Web framework, choose Manual configuration (Figure 12.13):
