# Understanding Templates In Django In this section, we will learn what are **Templates** in Django and where to store templates or HTML pages in Django. Along with Templates, we will also see how to handle and store **Static** files in Django. Static files include `Javascript`, `CSS`, `Images`. So in our previous [Section](https://blog.teachmebro.com/what-are-django-views), we have successfully created our views in the `views.py` file. Let's create templates for each view in this section. Django Templates ================ Django makes it possible to separate python and HTML, the **python** goes in **views** and **HTML** goes in **templates**. To link the two, Django relies on the render function and the Django Template language. Now create a template folder inside **accounts/** folder and inside template folder create **registration** folder and inside registration folder create **signup.html** and an **index.html** file. This folder will store all of your HTML files. The directory structure should look like below: ``` account/ templates/ registration/ signup.html index.html ``` Also, create another folder inside the **account app** named it **static** and create an account folder inside the **static/** folder and create a **css** folder inside the **account folder(inner)** and download the `style.css` file from [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/altaf99/TeachmeBroStaticFiles/master/Django/css/style.css) and move inside `/static/account/css/` folder. Now open the `signup.html `and put the following code inside it: ``` Sign Up

SignUp

{% csrf_token %} {{form.as_p}}

``` Now open the `index.html` and put the following code inside it: ``` Home {% if user.is_authenticated %}

Welcome, {{user.username}} You Successfully Logged In

{% else %}

Signup

{% endif %} ``` That's it! we have written our first templates. Next, we only need to create a URL mapping for each view function, so will see it in our next tutorial. `In this section, we have successfully `written` Templates in Django. So in the next section, we will see what are **URLs** in Django.`
