To deploy a production server, you need to set 3 things

deactivate the DEBUG configuration:
DEBUG = False <---------------

This disable all extra function for development.

define a static root directory in the settings file:
STATIC_ROOT = '/this/is/a/path/to/statics' <--------------

This, indicate where all the static files should be saved.

run the command to collect all static files:
python manage.py collectstatic <------------

This saves all statics files in the directory configured by STATIC_ROOT
