What are Django migrations and how do they work?

Django migrations are a way to propagate changes you make to your models (like adding a field) into your database schema.

Can you explain how to create a migration?

Sure! You can create a migration by running the command python manage.py makemigrations after making changes to your models.

What happens if I forget to run migrations?

If you forget to run migrations, your database schema won't reflect the changes in your models, which can lead to errors.

How do I apply the migrations to the database?

You can apply the migrations by running python manage.py migrate, which updates your database schema accordingly.
