1. Update system packages

Before installing anything new, it is recommended to update your system packages to avoid running into compatibility issues. Use the following commands to update your system packages:

python3 -m venv wiki_env

4. Activate virtual environment

Activate the virtual environment before installing Django-wiki.

5. Install Django-wiki

Next, you can install Django-wiki using pip in the virtual environment.
