The "core" app
----------------
Location: ``/mysite/core/``
This app is here to help get you started quicker by providing a ``HomePage`` model with migrations to create one when you first setup your app.
Default templates and static files
----------------------------------
Location: ``/mysite/core/templates/`` and ``/mysite/core/static/``
The templates directory contains ``base.html``, ``404.html`` and ``500.html``. These files are very commonly needed on Wagtail sites to they have been added into the template.
The static directory contains an empty javascript and sass file. Wagtail uses ``django-compressor`` for compiling and compressing static files. For more information, see: `Django Compressor Documentation <http://django-compressor.readthedocs.org/en/latest/>`_
Vagrant configuration
---------------------
Location: ``/Vagrantfile`` and ``/vagrant/``
If you have Vagrant installed, these files let you easily setup a development environment with PostgreSQL and Elasticsearch inside a virtual machine.
See :doc:`../getting_started/using_vagrant` for info on how to use Vagrant in development
If you do not want to use Vagrant, you can just delete these files.
Django settings
---------------
Location: ``/mysite/mysite/settings/``
The Django settings files are split up into ``base.py``, ``dev.py``, ``production.py`` and ``local.py``.
.. glossary::
``base.py``
This file is for global settings that will be used in both development and production. Aim to keep most of your configuration in this file.
``dev.py``
This file is for settings that will only be used by developers. For example: ``DEBUG = True``
``production.py``
This file is for settings that will only run on a production server. For example: ``DEBUG = False``
``local.py``
This file is used for settings local to a particular machine. This file should never be tracked by a version control system.
.. tip::
On production servers, we recommend that you only store secrets in local.py (such as API keys and passwords). This can save you headaches in the future if you are ever trying to debug why a server is behaving badly. If you are using multiple servers which need different settings then we recommend that you create a different ``production.py`` file for each one.
