Django – iterate number in for loop of a template

Django provides it. You can use either:

  • {{ forloop.counter }} index starts at 1.
  • {{ forloop.counter0 }} index starts at 0.

In template, you can do:

{% for item in item_list %}
    {{ forloop.counter }} # starting index 1
    {{ forloop.counter0 }} # starting index 0

    # do your stuff
{% endfor %}
