What I want to do is a user to go to a page where he can add some objects(Model) like a hostel which has some fields, otherwise what he can do is upload a CSV file and what I will do is accept upload of that CSV file and save data in a database. I have been trying to do this for past two days searching documentation and StackOverflow, and I did find some helpful links to that but those were not complete and as a result, things did not work out. I am a newbie in Django So please help me out. Here are links to some of my searches
