Creating an application form

[Aida]

Hello,

I want to create a form to apply in,  this form will contain fields for name, surname, e-mail, text area and  also i want it to contain checkbox-es. Data that will be inserted in those areas to be saved in db. How can i come up with this?

First, you need a model to store the data in the database.
Then, you can use a CreateView as explained at [1].

You should have something like that at the end.
models.py:
from django.db import models

class User(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=128)
newsletter = models.BooleanField()

views.py:
from django.views.generic.edit import CreateView
from .models import User

class UserCreate(CreateView):
model = User
fields = ['name', 'newsletter']

urls.py:
from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
url(r'^user/create/$', views.UserCreate.as_view(), name="user_create"),
]

If you have more question, like how all that fit together, I suggest
strongly to do at least one django tutorial. There are several of high
quality. If the official one is too rough for you, django girls [2]
offer an alternative for beginner.
