What should I include in my Django requirements.txt file?

In your Django requirements.txt file, you should include Django itself, any third-party packages, and their versions.

Can you give me an example of what that might look like?

Sure! A typical requirements.txt might look like this:

Django==3.2.5
requests==2.25.1
psycopg2==2.9.1

This specifies the Django version and some common packages.

How do I install the packages listed in requirements.txt?

You can install the packages by running pip install -r requirements.txt in your terminal.

Is it important to specify versions?

Yes, specifying versions helps ensure that your application runs consistently across different environments.
