User registration and user profiles

Existing users can now log in, log out, change their password, and reset their password. Now, we will need to build a view to allow visitors to create a user account.

User registration

Let's create a simple view to allow user registration on our website. Initially, we have to create a form to let the user enter a username, their real name, and a password. Edit the forms.py file located inside the account application directory and add the following code to it:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

class UserRegistrationForm(forms.ModelForm):
    password = forms.CharField(label='Password',
                               widget=forms.PasswordInput)
    password2 = forms.CharField(label='Repeat password',
                                widget=forms.PasswordInput)

    class Meta:
        model = User
        fields = ('username', 'first_name', 'email')

    def clean_password2(self):
        cd = self.cleaned_data
        if cd['password'] != cd['password2...
