djust not in INSTALLED_APPS

Error message

Solution

Before (problematic)
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    "daphne",
    "django.contrib.admin",
    "django.contrib.staticfiles",
    # djust is missing!
    "myapp",
]
After (fixed)
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    "daphne",
    "django.contrib.admin",
    "django.contrib.staticfiles",
    "djust",
    "myapp",
]
