What are Django generic views and mixins?

What are Django generic views and how do mixins work?

Django generic views are pre-built views that help you handle common web development tasks. Mixins are reusable components that can be combined with class-based views to add specific functionality.

Can you give me an example of a mixin in Django?

Sure! A common example is the LoginRequiredMixin, which restricts access to a view unless the user is authenticated.

How do I create my own mixin?

To create a custom mixin, define a class with methods you want to reuse, then inherit from it in your views.

What are the benefits of using mixins?

Mixins promote code reusability and help keep your views clean and organized by separating concerns.
