Adding new app to settings profile

#1

Trying to set everything up with adding the settings file below and I am stuck.
I tried to open the settings file and it comes up unable to view the file, as no application for viewing is known. Cause for the latter: The enviroment variable EDITOR is not set.

I am using a macbook pro
Thanks for the help

INSTALLED_APPS = (
‘collection’, # this is the app we added
’django.contrib.admin’,
‘django.contrib.auth’,
‘django.contrib.contenttypes’,
‘django.contrib.sessions’,
‘django.contrib.messages’,
‘django.contrib.staticfiles’,
)

Huh. Are you using Linux on your Macbook Pro?

What’s your normal editor for files?

Try Sublime Text! https://www.sublimetext.com/

Once you have it downloaded and installed, open it up and then open up your project folder (I believe the option in Sublime is called “Open folder,” though I might be wrong) and you should see all the files and would be able to open them individually. Let me know if you run into any additional issues!
