Description
Forum Reference: https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/update-startproject-with-default-login-signup-logout-options/35175/24
A simple RegisterView seems to be a missing piece in the list of built in auth views. This often causes confusion to beginners.
The aim of this this ticket is provide a no-frills view, url & template and then also direct users to some of the more popular packages for more complex setups (pick a few and/or point to https://djangopackages.org/grids/g/registration/)
My personal starting point would be the code from my blog here: https://softwarecrafts.uk/100-words/day-241

Hi Andy, reading the forum discussion this was the least popular option (adding signup) with some concerns raised by James and Carlton suggesting that this should be a how-to rather than added to core.
In short, I don't think the discussion came to a point where it's clear this should be added
