run django server on any network address of the system

To run a Django server on any network address of your system, follow these steps:

  1. Open your command prompt or terminal.
  2. Navigate to the project directory where your Django project is located.
  3. Activate the virtual environment for your project (if you're using one).
  4. Run the following command to start the Django development server:

python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

This command tells Django to start the server and listen on all available network interfaces (0.0.0.0) at port 8000.

  1. If the server starts successfully, you should see output similar to this:

Starting development server at http://0.0.0.0:8000/ Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

This indicates that the server is running and ready to accept incoming connections.

Now, you can access your Django application from any device connected to the same network by using your system's IP address and the port number. For example, if your system's IP address is 192.168.0.100, you can access the application by entering http://192.168.0.100:8000/ in a web browser.

Note: Make sure that you have the necessary firewall rules configured to allow incoming connections to the specified port if you're running the server on a system with a firewall enabled.
