How can I customize error messages in Django forms?

You can customize error messages in Django forms by overriding the error_messages attribute in your form class.

Can you give me an example of how to do that?

Sure! Here's an example:

from django import forms

class MyForm(forms.Form):
    name = forms.CharField(error_messages={'required': 'This field is mandatory.'})

This will change the default required error message for the 'name' field.

What if I want to customize messages for multiple fields?

You can define error_messages for each field individually or set them in the form's Meta class for all fields.

Thanks! Is there a way to add custom validation as well?

Yes, you can add custom validation by overriding the clean method in your form class.
