How to include a template from a required app in Django?

Question

Django

Good afternoon, actually there is a project with such file structure

project/
    apps/
        app1/
            templates/
                list.html
        app2/
            templates/
                list.html
        app3/
            templates/
                index.html

I need to include app2/templates/index.html in the app3/templates/index.html file. Is it possible to somehow strictly specify in the include tag what to look for first of all in the app2 application? Is there a way to do without absolute paths?

No, the search will be performed in the order the apps are listed in INSTALLED_APPSand will stop as soon as the first match is found. The standard way is to create subdirectories in templates with the same name as the application:

app1/
  templates/
    app1/
      list.html
app2/
  templates/
    app2/
      list.html
