Unexpected tokens in in PyCharm Community Edition

Question

I am new in using PyCharm but I am loving it gradually. I am getting a red underline on <!DOCTYPE html> and the error is "Unexpected Token".

Why PyCharm shows it? I can't understand.

What does PyCharm report the error as? Hovering over the issue should revel the issue and potentially a solution. — User1010, Apr 17 '20 at 20:05
Are you able to post the code raw? So that I may copy and paste this? — User1010, Apr 17 '20 at 20:39

It usually happens when you don't enable Django in Pycharm's settings. To resolve the problem:

In Pycharm open Setting in File menu
Select and expand Languages & Frameworks
Select Django and enable it
Select your Django project root
Select your project setting.py file
Select your project manage.py file
Apply setting

PyCharm does not provide support for the Django framework in the free community edition. The best solution may be to go with another IDE (at least until support is added).

A simple and dirty solution is to use template semantic to prevent this false positive error. Here's an example for django 3.2.10:

Before:

<!DOCTYPE html>

After:

{{ '<' }}{{ '!DOCTYPE html>' }}
