How to Install Django on CWP

Django is a free and open source high-level Python Web framework. Being a Python Web framework, Django requires Python

What Python version should I use with Django?

Python 3 is recommended. Django 1.11 is the last version to support Python 2.7. Support for Python 2.7 and Django 1.11 ends in 2020.Since newer versions of Python are often faster, have more features, and are better supported, the latest version of Python 3 is recommended.You don’t lose anything in Django by using an older release, but you don’t take advantage of the improvements and optimizations in newer Python releases.Third-party applications for use with Django are, of course, free to set their own version requirements.
