I am just flummoxed.
I started the web having just 1 single view in my views.py page, with one line to see if everything was working, namely:

from django.http import HttpResponse

def home(request):
return HttpResponse(‘Hello, World!’)

so a few days after I return, I delete that code and paste a different one

def home(request):

return render(request, 'home.html’, name='home’)

and now that home.html page is located in a directory called templates, and has just an html table and yes, I have modified settings.py to indicate where that templates directory is

DIRS’: [
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates’)
],

Well, when I go the webpage,I am still seeing the hello world, and is a code that does not exist anymore.

Of course, nothing to do with cookies or browser cache, because apart from having deleted all browsing data, I tried different computers, different browsers, I even shot up Tor that I had never used before.

I am still seeing the hello world. This is incredible.
