How does Django handle database migrations?

The question is about Django

Answer:

Database migrations in Django are handled via its native migration system as part of the Django ORM. When models are changed, Django will automatically create migration files representing the database schema changes that must be applied. Django developers will apply these using the migrate command, which updates the database schema to reflect the current status of the models. This system tracks all changes made on the database and maintains consistency between different environments.
