TemplateDoesNotExist at /home/-CodePudding

I'm following a video tutorial but Im getting an error. The only differance is that author uses Subline Text, while i use VSCode what is causing the error? enter image description here

here's my views code:

from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.shortcuts import render

def about(request):
    return HttpResponse("Inforamation about")

def home(request):
    return render(request, 'home.html')

here's my urls code:

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('about/', views.about),
    path('home/', views.home),
]

and my settings code:

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': ['templates'],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                'django.template.context_processors.debug',
                'django.template.context_processors.request',
                'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
                'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
            ],
        },
    },
]

Update the directory path to use full path:

'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],

You should start by changing your folder structure. Your folder structure for the templates should look like this:

mysite
----|templates
     ----|mysite
          ----|home.html

After that, change your template path from 'home.html' to 'mysite/home.html'.
