How do I manage sessions in Django using session views?

In Django, you can manage sessions using session views by utilizing the built-in session framework. You can store and retrieve data in the session using the request.session dictionary.

Can you give me an example of how to set a session variable?

Sure! You can set a session variable like this: request.session['key'] = 'value'. This will store 'value' under the 'key' in the session.

How do I retrieve that session variable later?

To retrieve the session variable, you can use: value = request.session.get('key'). This will return 'value' if it exists, or None if it doesn't.

What about deleting a session variable?

You can delete a session variable using del request.session['key']. This will remove the 'key' from the session.
