what should i do if my css is not working while i am using django framework?

Question

In main html document:

{% load static %}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{{STATIC_URL}}sgbit/style.css" media="screen" >
    <title>sgbit</title>
</head>
<body>
    {% block content %}{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>

in settings.py file:

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATIC
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR , 'static'),
]

I'm trying basic background color change to confirm css is working on my document, but nothing i try seems to work. I have watched a lot of youtube videos and also read the documents several times. can you please tell me the issues in my code.

Can you show the directory structure and the directory in which you have the css files? — Arun T, Jun 04 '20 at 19:25

Use this:

{% load static %}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'sgbit/style.css'%} " media="screen" >
    <title>sgbit</title>
</head>
<body>
    {% block content %}{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
