Right Answer:
To set up the database in Django, follow these steps:
1. Install the database adapter (e.g., `psycopg2` for PostgreSQL).
2. In your Django project, open `settings.py`.
3. Locate the `DATABASES` setting and configure it with your database details, like this:
```python
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql', # or 'sqlite3', 'mysql', etc.
'NAME': 'your_database_name',
'USER': 'your_username',
'PASSWORD': 'your_password',
'HOST': 'localhost', # or your database host
'PORT': '5432', # or your database port
}
}
```
4. Run `python manage.py migrate` to create the necessary database tables.
5. Optionally, create a superuser with `python manage.py createsuperuser` for admin access.
