Hi!

I've found many posts about how to delete a Django app, but there isn't an
offical one, so I imagine a section describing the steps to follow to do
that in a safe, validated and correct way.

i.e
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3329773/django-how-to-completely-
uninstall-a-django-app
https://techstream.org/Bits/Remove-App-From-Django-Project

Thank you!

Comment:

OK, a piece in the [https://diataxis.fr/how-to-guides/# How To format]
seems reasonable.

(There are a few of these available: #25313 — moving to a custom user
model — and #24686 — moving a model between apps — come to mind
quickly...)
