@jimblonde100 you can create an env file in the project's root directory with the below command:

export SECRET_KEY=$(python3 generate_new_key.py) 
touch .env
cat > .env <<EOL
DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=$SECRET_KEY
DEBUG=False
ALLOWED_HOSTS=*
CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://localhost:8000
EOL

It's as simple as editing a file. You can use text editor to edit .env file as change values as per your requirement.
