dj-beat-drop

dj-beat-drop is a CLI utility designed to simplify the creation of new Django projects by organizing all configuration files into a config directory, instead of using Django's default naming convention. This approach avoids the antipattern of naming the config directory the same as the project name.

Project Status

This project is in the very early stages of development, focusing on defining the API. Future releases will include additional features and improvements.

Features

• Simplified Project Structure: All configuration files are placed in a config directory.
• Latest Django Version: Currently, the utility uses the latest release of Django.

Future Goals

• Specify Django Version: Add an option to specify the Django version when creating a new project.
• Polish: Add lots of polish inspired by laravel CLI. Possibly refactor to use Rust or the coolest CLI library.
• Additional Subcommands: Introduce more subcommands to enhance functionality.
• Official Django Project: Aim to have this utility included as an official Django project, potentially renaming the command to django for easier usage (e.g., django new).
• pyproject.toml Integration: Set up new Django projects with a pyproject.toml file that can be used by uv to run the project.
