How to set Static Files & Images | Django 2.2 Tutorial

There are 3 main things we need to do:

set STATIC_ROOT in settings.py
run python manage.py collectstatic (or python3.5 or python3.6 as appropriate) Example: python manage.py collectstatic
set up a Static Files entry on the PythonAnywhere Web tab.
we can also customise STATIC_URL, if we want to use a static URL prefix other than /static/

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, ‘assets’)

Set url.py to load template

from .views import indexPageView

urlpatterns = [
path('', indexPageView, name='index')]
