In Django, data migrations allow you to manipulate data in your database during schema changes. You can create a data migration using the makemigrations command with the --empty flag.

Sure! First, create an empty migration: python manage.py makemigrations your_app --empty. Then, edit the migration file to include your data manipulation logic in the operations list.
