You need to run the following command to collect static files first

python manage.py collectstatic

Your settings.py file must include

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles') STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'))

After this you import static method in your urls.py file of project and then add

from django.conf.urls.static import static

urlpatterns = [ ]+ ] + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
