  4. Define Models 🧱
    Create a models.py file in your app directory and define your data structure.
    Example: 

    from django.db import models

class Book(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    author = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    published_date = models.DateField()
    Django Model

  5. Run the Development Server 🚀
    Start the server with: 

    python manage.py runserver

    Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/ to see your project in action.
