Packages

Create app-packages and install third-party packages from PyPI.

Like Django, Plain is heavily dependent on the concept of "packages".

In your settings.py, you define which packages are enabled with the INSTALLED_PACKAGES setting.

# app/settings.py
INSTALLED_PACKAGES = [

]

These can refer to third-party packages from PyPI (after you've installed them with pip), or they can refer to packages that you've written yourself.

some packages don't need to be installed as packages, but most do (and should specify)
