Thanks for the link. I understand these examples but still I would like to
see how a view function is defined.

I also would like to see it in PyCharm. When I click on a view function in
PyCharm I only see:

def myview_function(request)
Inferred type: (request: Any) -> HttpResponse

I would expect to see something like this:
view_function(request, *args, **kwargs)

I've also looked in django's source but I cannot locate it.
