- Pre-configured static files and a
devscript for development.

Installation via PyPI
You can install the Django TailwindCSS Automated Setup package via PyPI using pip:

Usage
After installing the package, you can set up your Django project with TailwindCSS by running the following command:
automate
This will prompt you to enter the name of your Django project.
Example:
$ automate
Enter your project name: my_project
The script will automatically:
- Set up static folders and create a base template.
- Configure TailwindCSS and generate
tailwind.config.js. - Add a
devscript to yourpackage.json.
Steps
1. Start the TailwindCSS Watcher
Once the setup is complete, navigate to your project directory and run:
npm run dev
This will watch for changes to the input.css file and compile TailwindCSS.
2. Start the Development Server
In a separate terminal window, run:
python manage.py runserver
This will start the Django development server.
Customizing Your Project
- Static Files: Add your custom styles and scripts inside the
static/src/folder. - Tailwind Config: Adjust TailwindCSS settings by modifying the
