Django’s template system comes with a wide variety of built-in tags and filters designed to address the presentation logic needs of your application. You can extend the template engine by defining custom tags and filters using Python, and then make them available to your templates using the {% load %} tag.
Custom template tags and filters must be inside a Django app. If they relate to an existing app it makes sense to create them there; otherwise, you should create a new app to hold them.
