Picking a random post here. When asking questions, please:

* Describe what you're trying to achieve, and what you have already tried
* Post the relevant code, if you have code that's not working
* Post the error messages, if you get error messages

These are really simple things that raise the chance you'll get helpful answers from this list.


Thanks,
Erik

Hi Adewale,

Installing Pillow is always a bit of a struggle, because it involves native code - the pieces of pillow that do the actual image processing rely on system libraries for handling JGEG, PNG etc. If the makers of QPython haven't included Pillow (or PIL) in their build, you're going to be fighting an uphill battle to get it working. If you're not comfortable dealing with Autoconf files and C compilers, you're probably not going to get it working. 

That said - Django should run without installing Pillow, as long as you don't try to use an ImageField. Skip over whatever step is telling you to install Pillow, and see what happens when you work through the tutorial.

Yours
