    You don't say explicitly how you're starting your application, but i am going to assume that you are using the runserver management command. If so, you should look into using gunicorn or similar to serve the application in production. This is reasonably straightforward and is "best practice". Plus it will fix your issue!

    digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/… have a look here to set up your app with gunicorn, postgres, nginx . It is very well explained.

  • Django's Deploying Django guide is important to read before running your app on a publicly accessible server.

You can use nohup command to run a command or shell-script even after you logout.

If you're just testing your application in development and you don't want to set up a production server as @PirateNinjas and @barbaart have suggested you which is the most secure thing to do. Then you can try to run the runserver command in the builtin console that your digitalocean's droplet has. Take a look here https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/droplets/resources/console/. It'll open a console in a separate browser and after you run the runserver command you can close it. Good luck!
