Django, can't create app in subfolder

Try this:

mkdir Apps\newapp
python manage.py startapp NewApp Apps/newapp

And you will to create a app called "NewApp" inside folder "Apps/newapp".

from the docs:

If the optional destination is provided, Django will use that existing directory rather than creating a new one. You can use '.' to denote the current working directory.
django-admin.py startapp myapp /Users/jezdez/Code/myapp

So try python manage.py startapp myApp ./Apps/myApp or with the full path.

Create your apps folder

mkdir Apps

Move to your apps directory

cd Apps

Run python by call the manage.py in your root project dir

python ../manage.py startapp newapp

There you go
