The main module

The main module is the entrypoint of your Django project. The main module includes the settings.py file where you will find settings related to your Django project, notably the list of applications included in your project. You can read more about configuring applications in your Django project here

The shared module

The shared module is a Django app containing boilerplate code that should enable your team to quickly prototype your application. The shared app includes a base template that we recommend extending in any of your other apps (learn more about extending templates in Django here):

<!-- my_app/templates/my_app/my-template.html -->

{% extends 'shared/base.html' %}

{% block content %}
<p>
  The HTML markup for your page should be included in the 'content' block
</p>
{% endblock %}

{% block styles %}
<style>
  // Any custom CSS you may need to write should be included in a style tag within the 'styles' block
</style>
{% endblock %}

{% block scripts %}
<script>
  // Any JavaScript you write should be included in the 'scripts' block
</script>
{% endblock %}

The base template includes Bootstrap, a frontend toolkit, to allow you to quickly create polished UI elements. You can learn more about Bootstrap here. (NOTE: The base template includes a maximal bundle of Bootstrap utilities that includes all necessary modules for supporting advanced features like tooltips and Bootstrap icons)
