I know you say look up how to set up a django app, I am a very very beginner at python and all this. I looked up and researched on how to do it but I dont understand still, I have installed all requirements but its still getting all kinds of errors like "NoModuleFoundError: No module named 'closedverse.settings'". I know you might not be able to help :( but I really could use some help rn

hi! i'm not quite able to get it running myself, but the best i can manage is this:

for the closedverse.settings, copy/rename the file closedverse/settings_default.py to closedverse/settings.py, and then open it up and change SECRET_KEY = '' to SECRET_KEY = 'something' and also go down to DATABASES = { and fill in your mysql information (if you haven't already, make sure you have mysql running, and that you have created a new database for closedverse to use, and put the name of that database in the NAME field)

then do python manage.py migrate to initialize the database, and then finally python manage.py runserver to run it and once it's running, open your webbrowser and visit http://localhost:8000/

except... i'm get Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed when trying to migrate admin and i'm not sure how to solve that ^^;;

for the purpose of closing this issue: it is planned to make it clearer how to set this up, like other Arian Kordi creations. but that's as if any of this even matters i mean i m talking to a GHOST right now
