View Classes

Replace polls/views.py:

from uuid import UUID

from django.http import HttpResponse, HttpRequest
from django.views import generic

from .models import Question


class PollListView(generic.ListView):
    template_name = 'polls/index.html'
    context_object_name = 'latest_questions'

    def get_queryset(self):
        return Question.objects.order_by('-created_at')[:5]


class PollDetailView(generic.DetailView):
    model = Question
    template_name = 'polls/detail.html'


class PollResultsView(generic.DetailView):
    model = Question
    template_name = 'polls/results.html'


def vote(request: HttpRequest, question_id: UUID) -> HttpResponse:
    return HttpResponse("You're voting on question %s." % question_id)

Create polls/templates/polls/detail.html:

<h1>{{ question.text }}</h1>
<ul>
    {% for choice in question.choices.all %}
        <li>{{ choice.text }}</li>
    {% endfor %}
</ul>

Create polls/templates/polls/results.html:

<h1>{{ question.text }}</h1>
<ul>
    {% for choice in question.choices.all %}
        <li>{{ choice.choice_text }} -- {{ choice.votes }}
            vote{{ choice.votes|pluralize }}
        </li>
    {% endfor %}
</ul>
<a href="{% url 'polls:detail' question.id %}">Vote again?</a>

Edit polls/urls.py:

# ...
urlpatterns = [
    path('', views.PollListView.as_view(), name='index'),
    path('<uuid:pk>/', views.PollDetailView.as_view(), name='detail'),
    path('<uuid:pk>/results/', views.PollResultsView.as_view(), name='results'),
    path('<uuid:question_id>/vote/', views.vote, name='vote'),
]

Above we are extending generic views in django.views.
