settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'allauth',
    'allauth.account',
    'allauth.socialaccount',
    'allauth.socialaccount.providers.google',
    'allauth.socialaccount.providers.github',
]

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
    'allauth.account.auth_backends.AuthenticationBackend',
]

SITE_ID = 1
urls.py
from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    path('accounts/', include('allauth.urls')),
]
That’s it! You now have working signup, login, logout, password reset, and social authentication.
