I just started learning django, and as i try to apply my migrations the first problem occurs. I start the server up, type
python manage.py migrate
and nothing happens. No error, no crash, just no response.
Performing system checks...
System check identified no issues (0 silenced).
You have 13 unapplied migration(s). Your project may not work properly until you apply the migrations for app(s): admin, auth, contenttypes, sessions.
Run 'python manage.py migrate' to apply them.

Django version 1.11, using settings 'website.settings'
Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
python manage.py migrate
And that's the end of my terminal feed. I thought maybe it just looks like nothing happens, but no. The changes weren't applied and I can't proceed any further. Any ideas on what's going on?
Well, you say that you first start the server and then type in the commands. That's also what the terminal feed you shared shows.
Do not run the server if you want to run management commands using manage.py.
Hit Ctrl+C to exit the server and then run your migration commands, it will work.
Try:
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate
Have you tried with parameter?
python manage.py makemigrations <app_name>
