==================================
How to delete a Django application
==================================
Django provides the ability to group sets of features into Python packages
called :doc:`applications</ref/applications/>`. When requirements change, apps
may become obsolete or unnecessary. The following steps will help you delete an
application safely.
#. Remove all references to the app (imports, foreign keys etc.).
#. Remove all models from the corresponding ``models.py`` file.
#. Create relevant migrations by running :djadmin:`makemigrations`. This step
generates a migration that deletes tables for the removed models, and any
other required migration for updating relationships connected to those
models.
#. :ref:`Squash <migration-squashing>` out references to the app in other apps'
migrations.
#. Apply migrations locally, runs tests, and verify the correctness of your
project.
#. Deploy/release your updated Django project.
#. Remove the app from :setting:`INSTALLED_APPS`.
#. Finally, remove the app's directory.
