Creating an about page

Now that we learned how to create a simple page, let’s repeat the process to create the about page. We will follow these three steps:

1. Configure the about URL.
2. Define the about function.
3. Create the about template.

Let’s start.

Configuring the about URL

In /home/urls.py, add the following path in bold:

from django.urls import path
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.index, name='home.index'),
    path('about', views.about, name='home.about'),
]

So, if a URL matches the /about path, it will execute the about function defined in the views file.

Defining about function

In /home/views.py, add the following in bold:

from django.shortcuts import render
def index(request):
    return render(request, 'home/index.html')
def about(request):
    return render(request, ...
