Django flatpages app is a built-in application that allows to store “flat” HTML content in a database and handles the management for you via Django’s admin interface and a Python API.

Django comes with an optional flatpages application. It lets you store simple “flat” HTML content in a database and handles the management for you via Django’s admin interface and a Python API.

A flatpage is a simple object with a URL, title and content. Use it for one-off, special-case pages, such as “About” or “Privacy Policy” pages, that you want to store in a database but for which you don’t want to develop a custom Django application.

A flatpage can use a custom template or a default, systemwide flatpage template. It can be associated with one, or multiple, sites.

The content field may optionally be left blank if you prefer to put your content in a custom template.
