SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Compiling django/conf/app_template/models.py ...
File "django/conf/app_template/models.py", line 1
{{ unicode_literals }}from django.db import models
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
It's safe to ignore these errors (Django will still install just fine), and you
can avoid them by upgrading pip to a more recent version using
``pip install -U pip``.
