What it does

Wagtail is a Django content management system that provides flexibility and a user-friendly interface for managing website content

When to use it
  • •Building a custom website with a complex content structure
  • •Creating a site that requires a high degree of flexibility in its content models
  • •Developing a site with multiple content authors who need a user-friendly interface
Ready-to-paste prompt
To create a new page type in Wagtail, add a new model to models.py, such as 'class EventType(Page): title = models.CharField(max_length=255)' and then run 'python manage.py makemigrations' and 'python manage.py migrate' to create the database tables
Heads up: Wagtail requires Django 3.2 or later, so make sure to check the Django version before installing Wagtail, as earlier versions may not be compatible
