        p_form = ProfileUpdateForm(request.POST, request.FILES, instance=request.user.profile)
        if u_form.is_valid() and p_form.is_valid():

Explanation

A CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) application in Django can be used to manage user accounts. The Django authentication system provides built-in models and views for user management. A user model can be extended to include additional fields using a OneToOneField.

  • Create: To create a user, use the User.objects.create_user() method or the built-in UserCreationForm.
  • Read: To read users, use the User.objects.all() method to fetch all users or use a queryset to fetch specific users.
  • Update: To update a user, use the User.objects.get() method to fetch the user and update its attributes.
  • Delete: To delete a user, use the User.objects.get() method to fetch the user and delete it.
