Answer from AI

The Model-View-Template (MVT) pattern is an architectural pattern used in Python web frameworks, such as Django.

  • Model — responsible for data handling and business logic, usually represented by classes that interact with the database.
  • View — processes user requests, retrieves data from the Model, and passes it to the Template.
  • Template — responsible for displaying data to the user, generating HTML pages.

Example: a user makes a request, the View retrieves data from the Model, then passes it to the Template for display.

# views.py
from django.shortcuts import render
from .models import Product

def product_list(request):
    products = Product.objects.all()
    return render(request, 'products/list.html', {'products': products})

Here, the View gets data from the Model and passes it to the Template for rendering.
