I can not run the project, I did what I was told in README.md as directed, but still gives an error.
The Output is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python311\site-packages\environ\environ.py", line 403, in get_value
value = self.ENVIRON[var_name]
~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^
File "<frozen os>", line 678, in __getitem__
KeyError: 'SECRET_KEY'
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
