from pathlib import Path

BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent

and index.html is

</head>
<body>
<div id="app"></div>
{% load static %}
<script src="{% static "frontend/main.js" %}"></script>
</body>
</html>
and the file I want to load is inside the frontend app which has a folder following path static/frontend/main.js remember this path is after the frontend folder/app.beside frontend app I also have a app known as lead but it is not affecting the code i think so.
