What is the apps.py file for in django?

Question

Django

As of Django 1.9, when creating a project, there is an apps.py file in the app folder.
What is it for?

Answer 1

The most obvious use is to make your own subclass of AppConfig and in the ready method to import some file, for example, signals.py, in which signal handlers are specified. Because if you just stupidly create a signals.py file, then Django will have no idea that such a file exists and that there are handlers
