A shell script to create a Django project.

I have been a Django developer for half a decade now and I always wish there was a way to start a project without having to deal with the boring stuffs. Every month I start at least three projects.
Today, I introduce to you a simple shell script that automates the start of a Django project.

What does it do exactly?

  1. Creates a virtual environment
  2. Upgrades pip and install Django and Pillow, and other packages you added
  3. Starts a Django project
  4. Gets list of apps you will need for your project and creates them
  5. Creates requirements.txt file
  6. Starts the project at port 8000

You can access the script at this github repo

Please follow the instructions at the repo
Enjoy and have fun!
