+To set up a PostgreSQL Docker container and connect it to a simple Django "Hello World" app running in another Docker container, follow these steps:
+
+### Step 1: Create the Docker Network
+
+Create a custom Docker network so that the Django app and PostgreSQL can communicate with each other.
+
+```bash
+docker network create my_network
+```
+
+### Step 2: Start the PostgreSQL Container
+
+Run the PostgreSQL container and connect it to the `my_network` network.
+
+```bash
+docker run --name my_postgres -e POSTGRES_USER=myuser -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mypassword -e POSTGRES_DB=mydatabase --network my_network -d postgres
+```
+
+### Step 3: Create a Minimal Django Project
+
+1. Create a new directory for your Django project:
+
+   ```bash
+   mkdir my_django_app
+   cd my_django_app
+   ```
+
+2. Create a `Dockerfile` for the Django app:
+
+   ```Dockerfile
+   # Dockerfile
+   FROM python:3.9-slim
+
+   # Set environment variables
+   ENV PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE 1
+   ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED 1
+
+   # Install dependencies
+   RUN pip install --upgrade pip
+   RUN pip install django psycopg2-binary
+
+   # Create and set the working directory
+   WORKDIR /app
+
+   # Copy project files to the working directory
+   COPY . /app
+
+   # Expose the port
+   EXPOSE 8000
+
+   # Run Django development server
+   CMD ["python", "manage.py", "runserver", "0.0.0.0:8000"]
+   ```
+
+3. Initialize a Django project:
+
+   ```bash
+   docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app -w /app python:3.9-slim /bin/bash -c "pip install django && django-admin startproject myproject ."
+   ```
+
+### Step 4: Configure Django to Use PostgreSQL
+
+Edit the `myproject/settings.py` file to point to the PostgreSQL container:
+
+```python
+# settings.py
+
+DATABASES = {
+    'default': {
+        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
+        'NAME': 'mydatabase',
+        'USER': 'myuser',
+        'PASSWORD': 'mypassword',
+        'HOST': 'my_postgres',
+        'PORT': '5432',
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Step 5: Build and Run the Django Container
+
+1. Build the Docker image for your Django app:
+
+   ```bash
+   docker build -t my_django_app .
+   ```
+
+2. Run the Django container and connect it to the `my_network` network:
+
+   ```bash
+   docker run --name my_django -p 8000:8000 --network my_network -v $(pwd):/app -d my_django_app
+   ```
+
+### Step 6: Migrate the Database
+
+Execute the migration command to set up the database:
+
+```bash
+docker exec -it my_django python manage.py migrate
+```
+
+### Step 7: Create a Simple Hello World View
+
+1. Open the `myproject/urls.py` file and add a simple view:
+
+   ```python
+   from django.http import HttpResponse
+
+   def hello_world(request):
+       return HttpResponse("Hello, world!")
+
+   urlpatterns = [
+       path('', hello_world),
+   ]
+   ```
+
+2. Save and close the file.
+
+### Step 8: Confirm the Django App is Using PostgreSQL
+
+1. Access your Django app by visiting [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000).
+
+2. To confirm the Django app is connected to PostgreSQL:
+
+   - Connect to the PostgreSQL container:
+
+     ```bash
+     docker exec -it my_postgres psql -U myuser -d mydatabase
+     ```
+
+   - List the tables in the database to see if Django has created its tables:
+
+     ```sql
+     \dt
+     ```
+
+   If you see the Django-related tables (like `auth_user`, `django_migrations`, etc.), your Django app is successfully using the PostgreSQL database.
+
+### Recap of Docker Commands
+
+1. **Create network**: `docker network create my_network`
+2. **Run PostgreSQL container**: `docker run --name my_postgres -e POSTGRES_USER=myuser -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mypassword -e POSTGRES_DB=mydatabase --network my_network -d postgres`
+3. **Build Django Docker image**: `docker build -t my_django_app .`
+4. **Run Django container**: `docker run --name my_django -p 8000:8000 --network my_network -d my_django_app`
+5. **Migrate database**: `docker exec -it my_django python manage.py migrate`
+
+This setup should give you a basic understanding of how Django connects to a PostgreSQL database in a Dockerized environment.
