Check your PATH: Make sure Python is added to your system's PATH

It looks like you might be trying to use the `django-admin` command but it's not being recognized. This usually happens for a couple of reasons:
2. **Check your PATH**: Make sure Python is added to your system's PATH. You can do this by:
- On Windows: Go to System Properties > Environment Variables. Under "System variables", find the `Path` variable and add the path to your Python installation (e.g., `C:\Python310\` and `C:\Python310\Scripts\`).

Python automatic "rror" checking

To automatically show errors while typing in Visual Studio Code for Python Django, you can enable **real-time type checking** and **linting**. Here’s how you can set it up:

1. **Install the Python Extension**: Make sure you have the Python extension installed in VS Code. You can find it in the Extensions Marketplace.

2. **Install Pylance**: Pylance is a static type checker that provides rich IntelliSense and type checking. Install it from the Extensions Marketplace.

3. **Enable Type Checking**: Open your `settings.json` file (you can access it by pressing `Ctrl + Shift + P` and typing `Preferences: Open Settings (JSON)`). Add the following settings:
   ```json
   {
       "python.analysis.typeCheckingMode": "basic",
       "python.linting.enabled": true,
       "python.linting.mypyEnabled": true,
       "python.linting.mypyArgs": ["--ignore-missing-imports", "--follow-imports=silent", "--show-column-numbers", "--allow-untyped-defs", "--allow-subclassing-any", "--allow-untyped-calls", "--strict"]
   }
   ```
   This configuration enables basic type checking and linting with Mypy.

4. **Install Mypy**: If you haven’t already, install Mypy using pip:
   ```sh
   pip install mypy
   ```



With these settings, VS Code will automatically show errors and warnings as you type, helping you catch issues early on.
