How to create a user in Django with extra fields

Question

I want to know how do I create users in Django. I can use User.objects.create_user() but I can only store username, email, password, first name, last name. I see that django.contrib.auth.forms is depreciated so I cannot UserCreationForm.

What if I want to store more fields. Can anyone help me with it?

Are you using Django 1.8? – Sunderam Dubey Oct 08 '22 at 14:51 — Sunderam Dubey, Oct 08 '22 at 14:51
@SunderamDubey No. It is 4.1 – Anshul Gupta Oct 08 '22 at 14:54 — Anshul Gupta, Oct 08 '22 at 14:54

You should make a custom user model and manager. Check this tutorial; it will explain all that you need.
