Django views are Python functions that take http requests and return http response, like HTML documents.A web page that uses Django is full of views with different tasks and missions. Views are usually put in a file called views.py located on your app's folder. There is a views.py in your members folder that looks like this:
Formula
my_tennis_club/members/views.pyfrom django.shortcuts import render
# Create your views here. Find it and open it, and replace the content with this:
Formula
my_tennis_club/members/views.pyfrom django.shortcuts import render from django.http import HttpResponse
def members(request):
return HttpResponse("Hello world!")The name of the view does not have to be the same as the application. I call it members because I think it fits well in this context. This is a simple example on how to send a response back to the browser.
Well, we must call the view via a URL. You will learn about URLs in the next chapter.
