CSS won't work with Django powered site
Usually the easiest way to do this is adding a folder static in the root of the project. Then look for and make settings attributes 
STATICFILES_DIRS = ('static',) if you want you can make this absolute path(recommended by django) 
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
Since you're using the dev-server this should be able to work. Now to link to them in your templates what you have to do is
<link href={{ STATIC_URL }}css/css.css> for the css assuming the is a file project_root/static/css/css.css you basically do the same for javascript
My CSS will not work when I run my site. Only the HTML displays. I have the right link. I'm confused as to what put in the MEDIA_ROOT, MEDIA_URL, STATIC_ROOT, and STATIC_URL. Every site tell me something different. I'm not using the (file) directory. I the above mentioned setting refer to where the files are placed and where they are hosted. I'm not hosting my files anywhere as of right now. I'm in dev mode. I know django has something to view static files in dev mode but it won't work!!!! My questions: 1. Should I host my files? 2. What should i put in the above mentioned settings? Keep in mind I'm in dev mode!
Thanks
