Project description

Boil

Maintainability Package version License Python versions Coverage


Initialization of new software projects should be quick and easy. Period.

Boil aims to build a centralized, pluggable and community-driven repository of project templates for various technologies, managed via single API.

These are the problems that it aims to solve:

  • Wasting time on initializing new software projects from scratch

    In particular: creating a file structure, checking naming conventions, determining dependencies and completing basic metadata.

  • Poor quality and lack of consistency between projects

    Most developers initiate projects in their own way without complying with generally accepted standards. Often due to lack of time, projects are initialized neglectfully, have no maintenance-friendly structure and are poorly documented.

  • Burden of bootstrapping tools

    Separate app generator for Ansible, Django, or Rails. Switching between one and the other may be troublesome considering the variety of APIs and different configuration options for each tool.
