aegis-stack 0.2.0

A production-ready Python foundation for builders who refuse to wait. Try: uvx aegis-stack init my-project

Build production-ready Python applications with your chosen components and services.

Aegis Stack is a CLI-driven framework for creating custom Python applications. Select exactly the components you need - no bloat, no unused dependencies.

Quick Start

# Run instantly without installation
uvx aegis-stack init my-api

# Create with user authentication
uvx aegis-stack init user-app --services auth

# Create with background processing
uvx aegis-stack init task-processor --components scheduler,worker

# Start building
cd my-api && uv sync && cp .env.example .env && make server

Installation

No installation needed - just run it:

uvx aegis-stack init my-project

That's it. uvx downloads, installs, and runs Aegis Stack in one command.

Alternative methods: Installation Guide covers uv tool install and pip install for specific workflows.

🌱 Your Stack Grows With You

Your choices aren't permanent. Start with what you need today, add components when requirements change, remove what you outgrow.

# Monday: Ship MVP
aegis init my-api

# Week 3: Add scheduled reports
aegis add scheduler --project-path ./my-api

# Month 2: Need async workers
aegis add worker --project-path ./my-api

# Month 6: Scheduler not needed
aegis remove scheduler --project-path ./my-api

For The Veterans

No magic. No reinventing the wheel. Just the tools you already know, pre-configured and ready to compose.

Aegis Stack respects your expertise. We maintain existing standards - FastAPI for APIs, SQLModel for databases, arq for workers. No custom abstractions or proprietary patterns to learn. Pick your components, get a production-ready foundation, and build your way.

The framework gets out of your way so you can get started.
