How do I use inline formsets in Django?

Inline formsets in Django allow you to manage related objects in a single form. You can create them using the inlineformset_factory function.

Can you show me an example of how to set it up?

Sure! First, you need to define your models. For example, if you have a Book model and a Chapter model, you can create an inline formset for chapters related to a specific book.

What about the views and templates?

In your view, you can instantiate the inline formset and pass it to your template. In the template, you can loop through the formset to render the forms for each chapter.

Are there any common pitfalls I should be aware of?

Yes, make sure to handle form validation properly and ensure that the formset is bound to the request data when processing POST requests.
