Migrating Django 1.6 to 1.9

Couple years ago, I wrote a simple Events and Signin management app using django 1.6. It was fun to write and it worked really well. Just recently I have to write another quick simple CRM webapp and I decided to use Django again, but they current release is 1.9 now and I quickly found few differences.

• The INSTALLED_APPS now takes AppCofig instead of package name. And there is a new apps.py file for it.

• There is now makemigration and migrate command to create database table.
