How to create a fullstack application using Django and Python Part 26
Maria D. Campbell
In this section, I extend the built-in Django User with a Profile model containing extra fields, create the Profile model in accounts/models.py, and extend the User model using a one-to-one relationship with the built-in User. I add a profile URL to accounts.urls.py, move the account URL in boards/urls.py to accounts/urls.py, and install the pillow package to enable use of the ImageField in the Profile model. I configure urls.py for user-uploaded media files during development, implement signals in the accounts app, and create an update profile form. I also create a profile.html template, delete existing users pre User profile and create new ones, and make styling adjustments to various templates.
