DJANGO - Create your first Rest API.

Create a Django project first.

Install the Django Rest Framework by using this command.

pip install djangorestframework

Go to the settings.py file and add "rest_framework" to the installed list.

Create a URL to access the API.

Static Data

Create a view for the API that returns data in JSON format.

Run the server and access the URL; now, you will get the data in a JSON format.

Change the views function a little more.
