SOS Django Template

SOS Django Tempalate is a Django starter template that has opinionated and good solutions while starting your new Django project.

Django is a batteries-included backend framework. While it comes with a good starting template, this boilerplate is not usually enough for developing your projects further. So, you will often find yourself installing 3rd party packages, configuring them and structuring your project according to these 3rd party solutions, which is a waste of time. Instead, SOS Django Template starts you from opinionated but sensible defaults.

You can refer to the documentation in order to start using it.

Environment

SOS Django Template requires Python 3.7+, Django 2.2+ and Poetry to be installed on your system.

This template separates production and development settings, which are under different project.settings.development and project.settings production modules.

It comes with many dependencies ready to use, such as black, flake8, isort, pytest, Django Rest Framework, Celery etc.
