  7. Define the filters that you want to apply to the base queryset.
  8. This can be done using the filter() method of the queryset and passing the desired filter conditions.

  12. This can be done using the Q object from the django.db.models module.

  14. Apply the filters outside the queryset:

  15. Apply the filters defined outside of the queryset using the filter() method and passing the Q object.

  17. For example: filtered_queryset = base_queryset.filter(outside_filter).

  19. Use the filtered_queryset obtained from applying the filters to perform further operations, such as iterating over the results or accessing specific objects.
