  • cookiecutter

    A cross-platform command-line utility that creates projects from cookiecutters (project templates), e.g. Python package projects, C projects.

  • Or, use the cookiecutter. https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter

  • django-environ

    Django-environ allows you to utilize 12factor inspired environment variables to configure your Django application.

  • You could also use just django-environ package to both import config from .env and set a database url instead of using 2 dependencies. I also think of a couple things I could add to the list, maybe I should a write a blog post as well?
