Where to place my base.html file?

Question

I am trying to follow Django's Template system while using a base.html file, however I am unsure of where to place base.html inside of my project. With namespacing in mind, Django suggests that your templates go inside of your 'project_name/app_name/templates/app_name/' directory. Since I would like to extend my base.html in multiple apps in my project, where should my base.html reside?

Answer 1

Since this is a shared template, place it in the project's templates directory:

project_name/templates/base.html
