I'm trying to create a date input field, but it shows as a simple input text, i'm using django 1.10, thanks in advance.

from django import forms
import datetime
from .models import Student

class StudentForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Student
        fields = ["name","date"]
        widgets = {
            'date': forms.DateInput(format="%d/%m/%Y")}

Still didn't work, by creating the form from the Model Form class, it doesn't create the forms according to the types of the models, all inputs created are type text – Goun2 Oct 31 '16 at 02:17
