How do I create custom views in Django?

To create custom views in Django, you can define a function or class-based view in your views.py file.

Can you show me an example of a function-based view?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from django.http import HttpResponse

def my_view(request):
    return HttpResponse('Hello, this is my custom view!')

What about class-based views?

For class-based views, you can use Django's built-in views. Here's an example:

from django.views import View
from django.http import HttpResponse

class MyView(View):
    def get(self, request):
        return HttpResponse('Hello from a class-based view!')

How do I map these views to URLs?

You can map views to URLs in your urls.py file using the path() function. For example:

from django.urls import path
from .views import my_view, MyView

urlpatterns = [
    path('my-function-view/', my_view),
    path('my-class-view/', MyView.as_view()),
]```
