4. Create a new server with a descriptive title.
5. Create a new database called developen and give the postgres user access.
6. From project root directory run python manage.py migrate to create the database tables.

• Run python manage.py createsuperuser and enter a username and password when prompted.

1. From project root run python manage.py runserver.
2. Go to http://localhost:8000/projects/ in your browser to view the Developen application.
