Something also caught my eye, why is there a separate django folder in root of the project? Could you explain its purpose? Thanks!

Good question. I am not sure why either that it is still there, I thought I had removed that file. I'll make another PR to make sure that file is removed. But good catch that should not be there

Good work Aimée! I have some questions though, I think we should ignore pycache folders using .gitignore file. Also there seem to be 2 interface folders and one of them might be unnecessary I think. One of the folders is located at path LMS/interface and other is located at path LMS/src/interface.

Thank you for the solution! I also went ahead and deleted the duplicated files. I think this happened when I was running into a merge conflict on my end.
