i am at Django Fundamentals: 10-Using Templates. I followed everything that Mosh did, but for some reason, I am getting a TemplateDoesNotExist error.

Internal Server Error: /playground/hello/

Is your template file saving as html or as Django? A good way to check is to look at the icon next to the file. If it doesn’t show the html brackets then its saving wrong. Go in setting-> Files:Associations and add an item value pair as follows :
Key: *.html
Value: html

Let me know if this helps!
