Hi folks, I hope you all are doing well and improving your technical skills daily. Allow me to help you to increase a bit of knowledge by providing a tutorial on how we can add header and footer templates on each page in Django. Now why wait let’s take a dive into the tutorial, at the end of this I am sure you guys can do this by yourself.
master.html
header:
<title>{% block title %} {% endblock title %}</title>
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-light bg-light">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a>
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarSupportedContent" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
<ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="/">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="/contact">Contact</a>
