I’m now working with template tags and one thing I haven’t understood is why do template-tags have to be stored inside a templatetags directory in the app. Is there an underlying reason for this? Is it possible to store them in a templatetags.py file somehow so that I can reduce the extra bloat around having extra directories?
Django expects you to arrange your apps in certain ways. Requiring a templatetags directory in the app is not the exception. Some other requirements are:
