What commands or console commands are typically used to deploy a Django application to a production environment?

The following commands and steps are typically used for deploying a Django application:

1. Prepare the environment: install dependencies from requirements.txt:

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Apply database migrations:

python manage.py migrate

3. Collect static files:

python manage.py collectstatic

4. Start the application server (e.g., Gunicorn):

gunicorn myproject.wsgi:application

5. Configure the web server (Nginx, Apache) to proxy requests to Gunicorn.

6. Restart services after code updates (e.g., systemctl restart gunicorn).

These commands are usually executed on the server as part of deployment scripts or CI/CD pipelines.
