I know what startapp is for. I'm just wondering why it's applicable here.

To recap, I have a 3rd party Django app that I need to pip install. I
created a project to contain the app. When I add the app to installed apps
in my settings,  Django errors on start up.

If startapp is still required for a pip installed app, I can do that easily
enough. Does it matter the name of the app I create? I'm afraid I'll have a
conflict if I use the same name as the pip installed app.

Thanks
