How do I implement user login in a Django application?

To implement user login in a Django app, you can use Django's built-in authentication system. First, ensure you have 'django.contrib.auth' in your INSTALLED_APPS.

What views and templates do I need for the login process?

You'll need a login view that handles the authentication and a template for the login form. You can use Django's built-in views or create your own.

How do I handle user sessions after logging in?

Django automatically manages user sessions. Once a user logs in, their session is created, and you can access their information using request.user.

Can I customize the login form?

Yes, you can create a custom login form by subclassing AuthenticationForm and then using it in your view.
