Django: Not Found static/admin/css : <p>I just deployed my first Django app on Heroku but I notice that it doesn't have any CSS like when I runserver on the local machine. I know there's something wrong with static files but I don't understand much about it even when I already read <a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/howto/static-files/#serving-static-files-in-development" rel="noreferrer">the docs</a>. I can do</p>

<p><code>python3 manage.py collectstatic</code></p>

<p>to create a static folder but I don't know where to put it and how to change the DIRS in settings.py. I really need some help to get rid of it.</p>
