Django MVC-MVT Pattern
➢ MVC is slightly different from MVT as Django itself takes care of the Controller part.
➢ It leaves the template which is a HTML file mixed with Django Template Language (DTL).
Model View Template

The developer provides the Model, the view and the template then just maps it to a URL
and Django does the magic to serve it to the user.
